Clearly this state wasn’t just settled by a bunch of too-soon hicks looking for Indian land to call their white bread own, as the town names signify. When one travels southward, you encounter Paoli, Wynnewood and Ardmore, the opal, garnet and topaz respectively of the Main Line jewels.

Anyway, it was a lovely surprise and a nice buffer between the very flat Dallas and very flatter Oklahoma City.
