Rising From The Ashes
Although I have things I wanted to blog, I have been dealing with other issues. I think I am about to get back into it. My cousin mentioned something that she saw that could only be seen in her hometown. It got me thinking that every town is unique.....it has characters and odd things that make them different. I have a growing affection for these kinds of things and had a great time recently on Route 66 between Oklahoma City and Tulsa. This is a picture of what was once a top of the line Phillips 66 gas station. Today it looks like a little cottage you would put in a train set. But there are unique, special and bizarre things in every town. I passed a few of them in Norman today and I think I am ready to get back to blogging. I would post more from that stretch of route 66 (Pop's, the round barn and the shoe tree), but I think Tracy, Whitney and I are going to do it together soon. I will blog it then.

I really like the idea here. I plan to put pictures of our town on the blog if our digital camera ever cooperates again, great picture!
Are you referring to my comment on the old man walking down the street with his red knit hat, gray shorts and white tee shirt..... It's funny, wish I would of taken a picture of it..... I actually thought of you when I see it. Not because you match his style. But because it is the type of thing that normally you see.....
PS.... You would love this town, we have some very old cemetarys too!
