Although the road to true love never runs smooth, with these two headstrong romantics holding the reins, love's journey i s as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road. That they will succeed in making a new life together we have no doubt, and that this new life will begin in a brand-new state provides the ultimate climax to the triumphant Oklahoma!
