On the road again

We are leaving Oklahoma this morning. The joys of knowing you'll be in a car for 10 hours. Are you jealous? Hope everyone has a great day.

The Firefighters Words

Oklahoma City


We went to downtown Oklahoma City. We had dinner in what's called Brick Town. It reminds me of The Gateway, but older and with more culture. Everyone was walking around in Costumes. The city is full of life. On our way home we stopped at The OKC Memorial. The picture of the empty chairs represents each life that was taken that day. The saying was written by a firefighter their for search and rescue.

Dead plants in Oklahoma


The plants didn't survive the trip. I didn't think it would be good to take the plants in and out of the car. I figured a consistent temperature would be better than dramatic changes. Hey, we are in the South, how cold can it get? That theory may of held true but while we were in New Mexico there was an unexpected temperature drop and everything froze. Now the plants have this transparency to them like I stuck each and everyone of them in the freezer. I don't see much sign of recovery. My piece of home is gone. :(
