Day 4 - Ride for the Relay

Today we left Joplin, MO, passed through Galena, KS, Tulsa, OK and then Edmond, OK.
We stopped in Galena at the origin of 'Mater - the tow truck from the movie "Cars".
Across the street was an old Bordello, where the Madame murdered some of the clients, stole their money and dumped their bodies in the mine.  It has recently been restored.
The short ride through Kansas was scenic.
We then went to visit a Cancer Center of American in Tulsa - a major corporate sponsor of the Ride.   They treated us to a wonderful lunch in the Board Room and a great tour.
Bobby "Road Kill" Taylor doesn't look happy, but he really was!

It was a great day!
Tomorrow is a big day - 300 miles from OK City to Amarillo, Texas.

We are doing great, although Melinda is commenting on how the Valkyrie is not quite as comfortable as the GoldWing was - we'll see how that works out!

Love to all!

God is good, All the time!

Stephen and Melinda
