That Mysterious Guy

 

We were in Tulsa over the weekend for a wedding. Greg & I used to live in Tulsa (me for 8 years). We weren't even married a year before Greg's job moved us to Memphis. It was hard to leave, but some good friends thoughtfully gave us a snow globe with the city of Tulsa in it. It plays the song, 'Oklahoma!'. I have always treasured it. Even though Josh has never lived there, he's always liked it too and wondered about the things inside it. Whenever we visit, we point out the buildings and landmarks that are featured in the globe. One item of curiousity has frequently been that little guy standing out front. I've explained that he's not little. He's huge. That's why he's in there.

So, this time we met him.... The Driller!

 

I think he gets it now.

No. You. Didn't. Make a trip Tulsa without seeing me. Hmmmph.

Love it! Sometimes the best lessons are simply experiences. (And I love the city of Tulsa also - it is one of the friendliest cities I have ever visited.)
Love you,
Mom

Great picture of the Driller!!! and I agree w/ Charissa on the "Hmmmph" on visitation. Still waiting on my dear, nursing school friends to come to the Evergreen State:)
