Denison Dam Road Trip! May 2015



Join us on our latest Road Trip Adventure to the Denison Dam, where Lake Texoma recently breached the spillway for the 4th time in history.



The dam is on the Red River, between Texas and Oklahoma, and creates Lake Texoma.  Widespread flooding has occurred in both states, due to several days of heavy rain, which led to the spillway breach.  At the time of our travels, we were not aware of this historic "Will it Spill?" event, until we happened upon a large amount of traffic leading up to the dam and a vendor selling t-shirts commemorating the occasion.



We hope the rain lets up soon, though there seems no end in sight!



For those who have been affected by the floods, you are in our thoughts.

Be safe and take care out there!
