Before neither of us can remember the details, I thought it would be nice to write our love story. Here is part 1 (update: with links to parts 2 and 3): The Hippie and the Pirate – A Love Story Part 1: How We Met It was sometime early September 1976, probably on a…
Oklahoma Sky
I took the following pictures as we drove home from Joplin on Monday. We had a bit of rain and then the skies gradually cleared. I was totally blown away by the beauty of our Oklahoma skies.
The Blue Whale of Catoosa
I’ve been hearing about the “Blue Whale of Catoosa” for quite some time and after reading this Buzz Feed post, “The 45 Best Things About Living in Oklahoma”, I was determined to see the whale for myself. It occurred to me as we were driving up to Joplin on Sunday that we probably weren’t too…
