From Tulsa to Lamar isn't too far, so a couple of weeks ago I decided to go over and look at Wyatt's home.
Assuming it's not the house (he) burned-to-the-ground...it still looks nice. It is occupied, so I didn't knock.
You have to ask for directions, though. It's not like Lamar has featured-it in a Panorama!
