Granbury, TX


Oklahoma City Memorial


Oklahoma City Zoo

We are now in Granbury, TX. We had a great time in Oklahoma City with Donna's sister and brother-in-law. We saw the Murrah Building Memorial - very distressing, but also gave us a good feeling about the way people drew together to help the victims, their families and the rescuers. After leaving there, we went to Bricktown and had lunch followed by a boat ride through the canal. It was fun and informative. One day we went to the zoo (it was a free to the public day) and had a nice long walk and then a tram ride. There were many, many kids there, but we managed to see and do everything we wanted to. Thanksgiving day we had a relaxing time, went to dinner, played cards, went to see "Life of Pi" (excellent movie), played more cards. What else would a person want for Thanksgiving? Our time with family went so fast and this morning we all went our separate ways. Sister and husband went to Branson and then on to Michigan and Tom and I headed south to Granbury. We are going to visit one of Tom's college friends here, then Sunday head to Dallas to see family again. Tom misses the rig, Donna doesn't yet. It's fun to be away for a while and just wing it a bit. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
