Went to the Oklahoma City Museum and Memorial- incredibly powerful. This was the only picture I felt I could take and still be respectful of the site.

Is that some sort of war memorial for the ship?
Memorial for the Alfred P. Murrah Building bombing in 1995.
Oh wow, almost 25 years ago already…
Yes it was (mid-to-late 1980s)…and I think still is. The aircrew used to call it the “wrecking ball”. Something about the short hose and its placement in the airstream made it a bit “unstable” when trying to plug. I think we had a couple damaged radomes over the years. Also, something about having to have that “bow” in the hose before you could get gas.

The stars at night, are big and bright…
And apparently we had to stop here on the way into Dallas.
Holy crap, you Texans aren’t kidding about everything being bigger here.

Took a day trip to Waco, because my aunt and Dr. Girlfriend are both huge fans of the show. As a friend of mine said, we were deep in HGTV territory.
Restaurant was really good, and everything was very family friendly, except for the prices at the gift shops - I’m pretty sure those had to break some obscenity laws in Texas.
Definitely had to stop at the bakery on the way out.

Is that the place that was done by Joanna and Chip Gaines (sp?)?

Yep. They have a whole complex down there, with gardens, gift shops, the bakery, etc. The restaurant is a couple of miles away closer to Baylor.
Oh, and all the vintage shops they get stuff at appear to be right by their block.
