The Land Run of 1889



We went to the land rush memorial in August. There are supposed to be 100 more monuments strung out along the downtown area right below 1-40.

Head Boomer In Charge

Here is the guy who shot off the big cannon.
This is an old grain elevator that some business man turned into an inside rock climbing wall.
This is Rick the water taxi driver. He was extremely funny and well worth the ride on the Bricktown canal. I learned that Oklahoma round steak is Bologna and you can buy camouflaged toilet paper for your fiance at the Bass Pro shop.

Whoa Nellie

Here is Mrs Sooner hanging on for life
The canal boat driver says the artist made his likeness in this sculpture. He also said if you donate $10K to the OU Art department that you too could have your face on one of the statues but then he went on to tell a joke about a Texas guy who donated and the artist made him look like the rear end of the horse below...

Boomer

The land run statues are about 2x the real size.
This is the start of the monuments and they plan to cross over a river and wind there way around the park
This is the view from the other side of the man losing his hat.

Gracie Fashion Show

Grace got some hand me downs from our good friend Kristen Mikkelsen. She immediately put on the bikini and said "oops I"m not supposed to wear this bra".
She loved showing off the skirts and put every outfit togather on her own.
Doesn't she look cute?

School Bridge rained out

Grace thinks there is no school tomorrow because the bridge is overflowing from the rain last night.
Daisy enjoyed exploring in the water and looking for beavers. There were all sorts of new sights and smells.

Big Rain


We had some rain from the tropical gulf storm and it dropped about 5" and now it is gushing thru the drainage ditches on base.
We went out exploring with the dog and kids.

Here is a video we took on You Tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Fk_GBsm-sc
