Bricks, BBQ, Boots & a Lot More in OKC

     I met Mr. Oklahoma in Brick Town. Guess what . . . he's tall!

     It was a busy weekend when I visited. People were heading to Chesapeake Arena to watch Shania Twain's concert. I wish I was watching, too. Most girls were wearing country boots. I love it, and I want to have one of those boots!

     I went to Myriad Botanical Gardens. One of the attractions in the garden is the Crystal Bridge - it was pretty unique. It has an amphitheater, fountains, playground, and restaurants. I joined the kids playing on Thunder Fountain - that was cool! And I chilled out with a huge root beer float!
  
     The Brick Town is a nice place. I enjoyed walking in the tourist area as I waited for dinner time. They say when in Oklahoma, you have to try barbeque. So I had dinner at Toby Keith's Bar & Grill. Yes, the barbeque was good, and the place was huge and nice with stuff about music. I love country music, and I love his songs.  

     According to the taxi driver, Oklahoma City was not a nice city years ago. However, the city has boomed over the years because of the oil industry. It is now one of the most visited states in the US, which is great. Also, according to the record, Oklahoma is the most seismically active state, meaning it's prone to earthquakes which are believed to be because of the oil industry.

     

     I love Oklahoma City. In short, OKC!
