so Oklahoma was fun. I really enjoyed spending the EAARLY morning with Steve... he is a fun guy. so here is what happened on my little escursion... (i think thats spelled wrong)
We left McPherson around like 6pm ish, and got into Oklahoma City around like... 10:30 or so. we met Brian, Dave's friend, and then we had to go to bed, because Dave's surgery was at like 5:30am... yeah, we had to wake up at 4:30... on a Thursday morning! That is my sleep in day... so that was a bummer, but it was ok, because oddly enough i wasn't tired... until like 6pm that night... anyway So we took dave to the hospital and then we decided to go site seeing... but since it was like 5am... nothing was really open... we went to the Oklahoma City bombing memorial thing, it was really impacting... like you hear about all this crap that happens, but you dont realize the depth of it until you are really there.... it was FREEZING cold there though... so we left and went to find something else to do... we found this little park that had a walking path along this little river and we walked around there a little bit. that was pretty fun... by this time it was still only like 6:30-7... so we went and got some breakfast at like the nicest mcdonalds i have ever been in... so that was cool... after that we drove around a little more and then we found this lake that was something Steve had in mind to go see, but we found it on accident... so we threw some rocks in the lake and stuff... and then we decided to go to Wal-mart until other things opened... we were there for like 30-45 minutes... maybe an hour, and then the hospital called, and we had to go get Dave... then we sat at the hospital for like an hour or so learning about how to care for Dave... he was so drugged up... it was funny. we then went to this sports store and then to lunch... after that we went to old navy and then to bass pro shop... got some pictures with Mr. Grizzly and Spirit the fox... hahaha... umm then we were on our way home, and thats when i got freakin exhausted! we got back to Mac around 7... and i took a nap until 9. yeah... so that was pretty much my past weekend so far.. its not over yet though... its only just begun! YAY!
