Day Trip!

Saturday we decided to take a trip
with the little girlees and head to Tulsa.

We started out on the Will Rogers Turnpike and stopped at the World’s Largest McDonald’s.

apr 24Inside the lobby there is a mini-Will Rogers Museum.

will rogers I’m kinda partial to Will Rogers.  He was a man of great character, whit and um, well, I went to Will Rogers Elementary School in Santa Monica, CA!

I didn’t know the difference between Will Rogers and Roy Rogers at the time… but I do now!

It had been so long since we had been that way that we went too far and missed the turnoff.

First stop was the Tulsa Flea Market at the Fairgrounds.

Time for lunch so we stopped at a Subway. 
On the way back to the car, Pop spied this donut shoppe. and stepped inside to get some goodies for the girlees.
  I spied the sky. 
Wasn’t it a gorgeous day???
