Looks Like We’ll Need To Revisit Dallas
Dallas was a washout. We just spent 12 nights there and only had a couple of days where it didn't rain. There was so much rain that we were getting flash flood warnings on our phone. That meant we spent much more time at our hotel than expected. We'd been given a ton of … [Read more...] about Looks Like We’ll Need To Revisit Dallas
Our Time At The State Fair Of Texas In Dallas

An Afternoon In Tahlequah, Oklahoma – Capital Of The Cherokee Nation

"Oh no! I forgot to ask for a ribbon!" Yes, I'm 37. No, I didn't "need" a ribbon. But did I want one? Heck Yeah!! I saw a little boy with a "My First Fair" ribbon and it was so beautiful and purple.

Oklahoma City Might Be Nice, But…
Oklahoma City might be nice, but we didn't really give ourselves a chance to find out. We recently stayed in Oklahoma's state capital for 10 nights while on our 50 state road trip. We'd figured that'd be plenty of time to explore the city and, to be honest, it probably … [Read more...] about Oklahoma City Might Be Nice, But…
