We had planned on Horse Heaven, Cedar Lake, 4-J, and Big Creek for our big week long rides along with weekend rides locally at state parks etc, but might have to pair it down to just two week long rides. Just passed the diesel station tonight - $3.54 a gallon! Might have to trade in the diesel truck for a gas.

I am planning to go back to Cedar Lake (just went there last weekend), J-D Ranch, and Robbers Cave for right now. Now that I finally have my set up together (truck, camper and trailer), diesel is killing me too. I just can't justify spending $50-75 to go on a day ride. So unless I am camping, I am staying close to home this year.

We were going to take the truck/camper to Disneyworld but after adding up the costs it will be cheaper to take the car and pay the $300 for gas and $800 for a hotel room (off disney). The camping spot was only going to be $400 (on disney) but Diesel is going to be about $1300. If prices don't go up between now and June.

With the price of fuel we'll ride close to home a lot this year. Hopefully make a trip to IL and also we'll do Brown County IN in the fall. Also I host a ride in KY. Relay for Life Porker Trial Ride this will be our 5th year. We ride on Sat. morning June 21st., Live band and catered meal that evening with lots of door prizes and raffles. The cost of the weekend is $20.00 and we raise a lot of money for the Realy.

In Oklahoma we are very spoiled! Almost all of our horse camps have hookups. Both places are very nice. Robbers Cave is also an option. You can visit my website to check out places to trail ride in Oklahoma. www.oklahomahorseonline.com
