Oklahoma

This is my home state. Oklahoma born and raised!! It’s not so bad of a place. I’ts got it all except for ocean-front. But It’s not to bad of a place to grow up if ya ask me!!

Most born Texans have been to Oklahoma at least once ;)

i’ve lived in oklahoma pretty much my whole life (but have traveled a bit) and can say that oklahoma is truly beautiful.

the cool thing about oklahoma is that if you don’t like where you are, keep in mind that there are four distinct regions in oklahoma: green country, where i’ve been blessed to live…rolling hills, lakes, rivers, beautiful countryside, etc.

the mountainous region in SE OK…i’ve never been down here, but here it’s beautiful, like green country but with the ouachita’s…they have viking stuff! lol

the panhandle…desert-y, mesas, flat, fairly boring. along the red river southern border, it is also like this. this is the red dirt you hear about that sucks. not to be confused with red dirt music, an awesome genre of music particular to oklahoma.

and the SW region, also kind of desert-y, but more populated. and there’s a town called happyland.

all throughout oklahoma there’s tons of native history, culture, and education. this is a truly wonderful thing that is absent almost ANYWHERE ELSE you could go in the world (besides new mexico).

tulsa is an excellent place to go for those who can’t quite separate themselves from served-on-a-plate insta-entertainment. opera, ballet, excellent museums (philbrook!), awesome range of restaurants, nice parks, good zoo, etc.

all in all, i love this state, and i’m glad that i grew up in a place that emphasizes slowing down, appreciating nature’s beauty, cultural diversity, and being kind to those around you. sure, there’s hicks, cowboys, and good ol’ boys, but that in itself is a unique culture (that you can abstain from lol).

if you’re an outdoors type of person, welcome to heaven.

was the last time i went to this place…..really i just stayed the night….my destination was arizona….but they have a nice zoo

It’s flat, it’s ugly, it’s depressing.

Great state with lots of cool stuff. I drove the entire 40 East, and got an eyeful of Oklahoma. The scenery is really nice and orderly. I notices some abandoned houses and old barns along the route, which really adds flavor to the drive.

well, i was born there. i spent the first 9 years of my life there. half of my family lives there, and i still have wonderful friends there. home is where the heart is. i miss it a lot.

more family here
havent been here in quite a few years though i should make a trip up there

The first time I went to this place I was 9 yrs old. I went to visit my aunt she was a student at ORU the campus was beautiful. We went up in the Prayer Tower.It was a very good trip.The second time I went to Tulsa i lived there for 3 months I enjoyed this place it was an experience.

Not much to really say about Oklahoma.. Went to the Oklahoma City monument, did a little sight seeing, eh…
