N Burford Avenue, Watonga, Oklahoma.

Oh mylanta! This supercell was 10 years ago today. It’s still a near top 10 chase all-time. This storm formed and crawled south for a couple of hours in the evening with incredible electricity. This is what all storm chases should be like! (August 17, 2009)

It's almost time and I am so excited! Tomorrow I will be heading out around 5am (hopefully) and starting my climb up to the panhandle. My plan is to drive all day, never touch a main interstate, and stop at as many abandoned, historical, and interesting places that I come across. I hope to end up at the tip of the panhandle at either the black mesa or maybe just Kenton (if it's too late) and get a hotel, wake up, and take a whole different path home. Never touching a main interstate during the entire trip. #EXITtheINTERSTATE During this trip I will be driving through more than 50 Oklahoma towns. I have no other obligations during this entire trip other than take pictures, take in the sights, and enjoy myself to the fullest. I simply can not wait. Do you or somebody you know live in one of the towns I'll be going through? Tag them below and let them know. If you'd like to support the Oklahoma Abandoned Project then you can share this post to your Facebook and with your friends, get the word out so that everyone can follow along and learn a little bit about the history of our state. Thanks everyone!
