Oklahoma Trip

Well, if I had pictures then I would post them. Overall it was a really good trip. Lori and I drove to Oklahoma Friday afternoon after class. We got a few flurries after we got past Tulsa, and the roads got a little slick.

Friday night we just relaxed, watched a movie and went too bed. Nothing too exciting. Saturday we slept in, had a late breakfast of bacon, eggs, and toast. We went to Church on Saturday, and then out to dinner. Dinner was at a place called Bourbon St. Cafe. They had some live musician playing Jazz. The dinner was for my mom's birthday. My family left after dinner, and Lori, Ray, and I stayed behind. Ray and I had a beer and we listened and talked for a good hour or two. After dinner, we stopped by Walmart, and Lori got some temp dye for her hair. We got back to my house, and Liana wanted to dye her too, so they made a second trip and then they both stayed up all night dyeing each other's hair.

Sunday, another ice storm was passing through Oklahoma. We left pretty early, but the roads were still bad. It took over 2 hours to get through Tulsa, a semi had jacknifed across the highway. We had to actually detour off the interstate and get back on another on ramp. Lots of cars slid off the road.

We took our time and made it back safely, but unfortunately my truck is in bad shape. It started to vibrate a lot on the way back, and by the time we made it to Rolla, it was making all kinds of broken noises. I'm taking it in later this week to get it checked out.

Overall good time.
