Past Adventures – OKC 4/2006, part 2

We toured the State Capitol of Oklahoma and it only took about an hour. 

Not too bad.  We were joined by a 4th grad class which went better than expected.  ;)

We also toured the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum and it was awesome and a very moving memorial.  We really encourage everyone to visit but be sure and go early so you have plenty of time to take in all there is to see. 

We then headed to Arcadia OK to visit The Round Barn.  We met Butch and he was such a hoot to talk to!  I bought one of his famous $1 ink drawings.  Butch was so awesome and we learned many interesting facts about round barns in America.  He even threw in a couple of jokes to keep us entertained.  ;)

We then headed to the National Cowboy and Heritage Museum.  I’ll be honest, it wasn’t really my cup of tea but it was still interesting nonetheless. 

We ate at our favorite restaurant in OKC which is Ted’s.  Tyler was our waiter and he was awesome and the food was muy delicioso!  Next time you are in OKC stop by Ted’s Cafe Escondido located at 2836 NW 68th St.  You’ll be glad you did!

On our way back to our hotel we passed through the Asian community.  I don’t think it is officially called the Asian community but the street signs were in English and another language.  We saw the Braum's Milk Bottle.  It was a random sighting and therefore very cool.

I am always interested in odd and unusual things and I make everyone else go along for the ride.  They may resist at first but resistance is futile and we always end up having a fun time.  After all that it was back to Whitten Inn where we indeed purred like kittens.

To be continued……
