Lake Wister State Park Cabins
There is a peaceful atmosphere at Lake Wister State Park. Truly one of the state’s hidden gems, this beautiful park has 15 very comfortable and well equipped cabins. 99 RV sites also accommodate those looking to get away for an extended stay or weekend. With what has to be one of the prettiest sunsets in the state, Lake Wister State Park is the perfect place to unplug and relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings of southeastern Oklahoma.

Poteau, Oklahoma
I was born in Poteau, Oklahoma and lived there until age 18 when I moved to Stillwater, OK to attend Oklahoma State University. In my youth Poteau had a population of about 5,000 people. Today is almost twice that number. Quite a few of my middle school/high school friends still live there. I enjoyed growing up there in the Choctaw Nation, had a lot of freedom to roam the countryside on our bicycles and later in automobiles. We did not dare do anything unacceptable because we knew someone would report to our parents! Southeastern OK is now promoted as Green Country (even most people in the state don't know how beautiful that part of Oklahoma is with national forests, rivers, lakes). I cherish much of my experience in the state but am glad I decided to leave and expand my awareness of the country and the world. This little video captures some of my memories. Enjoy!
The Big Valley - Belva, Oklahoma
No Nick, Jared, or Heath, but the scenery in the Cimarron River Valley here is incredible. I have tried to get a shot from some distance away to show as much of the rocks and scenery as possible. This is a small part of the hill. Thanks for watching.

Depot in Mena
Mena was founded by Arthur Edward Stilwell during the building of the Kansas City, Pittsburg and Gulf Railroad (now the Kansas City Southern), which stretched from Kansas City, Missouri to Port Arthur, Texas. Train service to Mena began in 1896.
Stilwell named the town in honor of Folmina Margaretha Janssen-De Goeijen, the wife of his friend and financier Jan De Goeijen, whom Mr. De Goeijen affectionately called Mena. Janssen Park in the center of Mena is also named for her.
Mena was settled in 1896, and incorporated on September 18, 1896.
In 1897, the Bank of Mena was founded. The following year, the county seat was moved from nearby Dallas, Arkansas to Mena.
Mena's population had grown to 3,423 by 1900.
The town's main industries were timber, agriculture and mineral extraction, though it was advertised as a spa city located within a healthy environment.
Stilwell donated land to the city in 1906, and a park and campground were constructed.
In 1910, the railroad moved its shop facilities from Mena to Heavener, Oklahoma, causing a loss of 800 jobs.
A private school in Mena, Hendrix Academy, closed in 1905.
In 1911, a damaging tornado struck the town.
Panorama PG Talihina, Oklahoma
Panorama paraglider launch, 1400' launch in Talihina, Oklahoma. Ouachita Mountains are the western most reach of the larger Ozark Mountains in the southern US. Cool looking terrain with wide valleys with farmland and ridges with dense forest. People have done very sizable XC from here, and not far east the Arkansas open distance record was set last season at 230km. No one got up and out this day, but still fun ridge soaring with embedded thermals, longest flights were 1-2 hours. I'm flying a Gin Bolero III. Big thanks to Ron from and for the intro and good company for the day. I hope to come back here in the future and see what more it has to offer. 8/18/13
