And we are off ... LIKE A HERD OF TURTLES!!
My Dad use to say this so many times growing up.
Every time I say it my kids laugh. I think they are starting to get it.
I35 North = Herd of turtles! Haha!
Even moving in slow motion we are right on schedule!
Our goal was to go to the only drive-in movie theater in Oklahoma City and we made it!!
We saw Inside Out (great movie)! The girls had already seen it with Nana but certainly did not mind seeing it again and we all really loved the drive-in.
The last movie I saw at the drive-in was Footloose! Whoa...
On our way, we stopped in West ( of course)! The kolaches are always AMAZING!!! We stopped in Frisco to see one of eight Big Boy Locomotives on display in the USA. We saw it thru the fence kinda behind another train...they offered to give us a walking tour tomorrow at 11am. I had to tell John sorry we will be in Kansas tomorow! He laughed :) We saw a VW bug transformed into a spider in Lexington, OK. It was built by Leroy Wilson in 1979. We checked into our hotel and headed to the drive-in. Oh and had ice cream at Braums'! :)
We are now the family on vacation that has a selfie stick and uses it.
Dan got it from some kids from China that toured our ranch. It is awesome!
The last time I stayed in OKC was 2 days before the OKC bombing. I was a flight attendant with Continental at the time and stayed about a block away from the sight. Wow!
Seems like a life time ago...
