Anything interesting to see or do in OKC? I have to spend most of next week there. Unfortunately, I will have to spend most of the daytime hours looking at the inside of a conference room. :whiner:
There must be some kind of memorial from the OKC bombing that you could go see. Otherwise, the only people I know from the area think it's incredibly "old-fashioned" to put it nicely, they call it k-drag (short for Knuckle-Draggers). :think:
yes, there is a bombing memorial there. we went to it last summer. it's worth seeing. okc has an excellent zoo. there is the kirkpatrick center. it's a big science-type museum. you might also want to check out bricktown; lots of clubs, restaurants, AAA baseball, etc.
There are several members in the OKC area. You might get a chance to ride at Draper before they close it. Contact Lorin via PM and maybe he can get you a trail ride.
PS, maybe we should remove the OK and let our leader be known as "IEWAN". :p
Thanks for the info! Bricktown, Kirkpatrick Center, Memorial all sound like good things to do. Don’t know if I’ll have time for much else since I’ll be stuck in a training class from eight to five each day. I have heard there are lots of good restaurants in the area. I am sure our hosts for the training will be able to direct us to some good ones.
Let me know when and where you are at and maybe we can hook up. The memorial is worth seeing, and Bricktown makes for a nice visit on occassion (remember - 3.2 beer). As to being knuckle draggers, I realize, for the most part, that we are a little sheltered here in "The cultural center of the universe (aka - hoyt axton)," I like it. Drop me an e-mail and maybe I can get you pointed in the right direction. Lorin.
If you are into Military vehicle and/or weapons , there is a kick@$$ museum near the horse track called the 45th infantry museum. I go there evertime I'm in OKC. They take donations at the door. Very cool IMO.
Neat place. Found some great food, drank a lot of 3.2 beer, and met some really neat people. Went down to the Memorial on Wednesday night (could not speak the entire time I was there) and had a great steak dinner with Lorin on Thursday night (thanks for taking the time, Lorin). I get to go back in two years for recurrent training with the FAA so maybe I can fit in a ride next time. That dry riverbed looks like too much fun!
