Canadian River Cabin

Coasting out from Oklahoma City, urban backdrop dissipates into country, light pollution fades. Signs of civilization thin and nearly drop out, but among the turbines, half a mile from the Canadian River’s red-stained waters, a cabin sits perched on the high point of an eighty-acre plot. As a child, the owner listened to his parents speculate on what an ideal spot for a home the site would make, and now that’s what it’s become. On waves of Bluestem Prairie, where nature reclaims dominion, Canadian River Cabin is the end of the road.
