Waterford Marriott Oklahoma City

We will post trip information here as soon as it starts. For 2010, we will continue planning the project and look for Sponsors that are willing to invest and support the Project. All indications in that regard is ...

... going down the road. On Tuesday we took a ride on the scooter, stopped for lunch, and when we came out the scooter would not start. Now we have to get it fixed. Fortunately there was a surplus store next door for us to waste some time hoping the scooter would star if we waited, it didn't. Bill hitchhiked back to the Casino to get the truck, Bonnie waited with the scooter.

Ha, ha $30 tickets to U2 and the Black Eyed Peas is enough to draw anyone to Oklahoma, especially us. Jesse was browsing online and found these amazingly cheap tickets 3 days before the show so we packed up our stuff and headed to Oklahoma. We had to drive straight through the rest of Missouri, past Tulsa, although we had time to stop by these gigantic prayer hands. A Christian University in Tulsa built these gigantic ...

The highlight of the Museum is Prosperity Junction. You enter this circa 1900 Western cattle town at dusk and revisit life in a bygone era where full-size structures, including a saloon, school and church, bring the experience to life.

The outside grounds are beautifully landscaped and are exquisite. The Western States ...

... 8217;s Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. The Mission Statement sums it best:

We come here to remember those who were killed, those who survived and those changed forever. May all who leave hear know the impact of violence. May this memorial offer comfort, strength, peace, hope and serenity.

OK City or somewhere.
I ran an errand as I was leaving Elk City, and kept looking at the temp thinking, "Really? 40F.
Amazing. Perhaps I should break out the winter woolies before tackling the interstate."
But I didn't and it did get up to 42 (this was at 10:30AM, mind you). I had decided last nite that I would wait out the weather system (flood warnings east of OKC for today), so I left much later than usual. Motels don't like it ...

... to see quite a few statues and memorials during my trip (hmmm, that sounds a bit weird but hey-ho!) but the one in Oklahoma was definitely one of the most poignant. They have a beautiful tranquil reflecting pool where the street used to run in front of the federal building with gates either side representing the times before and after the bomb went off. In the area where the building used to stand there are chairs representing each of the people ...

... was rich as lunch came to a close. It was eerie how similar the get-together was as compared to the family events that happen in Covington and Sidney, OH: laughs, amazing food, and great people.

The real humor commenced as Aaron and Christina opened their birthday gifts. Aaron first opened a lamp from his parents that had a chimpanzee as the base, and a leopard print lamp shade. The younger cousins could not help but laugh as Aaron’s ...

While I have always loved p**forming with the Choir in the Salt Lake Tab**nacle, with its acoustic beauties and wond**s, tour venues commonly place the Orchestra much near** to the Choir. Not only does this clos** juxtaposition of Choir and Orchestra help to musically unify the nearly 400 musicians on stage, but th**e is an additional welcome aural advantage for us as instrumentalists in that we find ourselves more fully awash ...

... City, close to the famous Route 66. The rodeo experience was great, some of the skills, especially those of small children racing on horses, were unbelievable. Also, watching the bull riding is quite an experience. The only problem with rodeo was that it was kind of a family event and we could not get any beer there.. It was kind of funny at the entrance, when after being asked ...
