Day 6 - May 6 2010 - Mimai, OK to El Reno, OK

The day started warm and with a lite wind. By afternoon the winds had picked up to gusts of 30mph, which made the ride through Oklahoma City interesting to say the least. But we did stop at the Rock Cafe in Stroud, OK which has reopened after a fire of two years ago. Stroud is a dry county so no cold beer. We reached a high of 91F for the day.

We had a brief stop in Arcadia, OK at the Round Barn. The large red bar has great architectural features and has been fully restored. A great display of the history of the round barns in the area and this restoration was on the first floor of the barn.

As the wind was making the trip less pleasant as the day wore on we hopped on the Interstate to bypass Oklahoma City, and returned to Route 66 on the West side of the City.
