Robb Hibbard12:05 PMFrom The Oklahoman's Chris Casteel:
Motorcade pulled up to FCI El Reno at 10:12 am CT after an uneventful drive along I-40.

People stood on the sides of this 6-lane superhighway (in parking lots near exits) to wave -- as well as some cows, or people dressed as cows, in front of a Chik-fil-a.

As we approached the prison we saw pastures of real cows that, we're told by Glen Miller of the El Reno Tribune, are part of the prison's working farm.
