Oklahoma City

Lived here when I was 11 years old. Oh what a year.

Downtown area is a mix of old and new. The Oklahoma City memorial is very sobering. The new area is cross by canals and you can get a ride around in canal boats.

Standing on a street, looking at two restaurants, about an equal distance away, which one would I choose?

There’s Rib Crib, where Tuesday nights it’s all you can eat ribs and sides for $10.99. (It’s Tuesday, btw.)

OR

This place

HMMMM I wonder

After an absence of nearly five years, R8 is scheduled to make a return to this place.

This isn’t one of the favorite stops on my world tour, but people here have been generally pretty nice to me here.

OKC is worth visting if you want to see real cowboys, eat real barbeque and travel route 66. It also has some amazingly preserved Art Deco and Art Nouveau architecture, as well as a surprizing local arts scene.
