There are no naturally occurring lakes in Oklahoma. Nope. No lakes.
The lakes that DO exist are man made.
We visited one today. It was "opened" around 1987, according to Dave. It's one of the sites within reasonable driving distance where one might spot bald eagles in the winter months.
Arcadia Lake was built to provide a reliable water supply to the city of Edmond, OK, where my cousin and her family live.
It's surrounded by a camp ground on one side, which was where we went in, and it was hard to see what was on the other side. It's really big.
We tried to go eagle spotting, but there were none to be spotted. It was in the 50's out, though, and partly cloudy, so it was a good day to start Dave's exercise program with a walk.
It was nice to get out in the fresh air, and, as I like to say, "man made" nature is better than no nature at all.
