This blog was created for posting my pictures. I'm planning on taking at least one picture each day. This will motivate me to use my camera every day. I have a new daughter, who will make great material for this, but my pictures will include other subjects as well. I work in Tulsa, which has lots of interesting sites and is located on historic route 66. All of my pictures are links and you can click on them to see the larger version.

Day 146

Today we looked at several homes that were part of the Parade of Homes. We came across this while we were out. You don't see too many covered bridges anymore, but this one is only a few years old and pretty good sized.

Day 145

This is a toy horse that we bought for Alyssa before we went to China. We liked it and thought that someday she would enjoy it. It's been sitting in the corner of her room. This morning, she was trying to climb up on it. So, Shawn moved it into the middle of her room. She climbed onto it all by herself and knew just what to do with it.

Day 144

This is the fireworks stand near my house. This is an indian run fireworks stand. The building you see on the right edge of the picture is the indian smoke shop. The large metal pole behind the stand on the right is what holds up Oklahoma's only video billboard, from yesterday's post.

Day 143

This is the first and only video billboard in the state of Oklahoma and it's less than a mile from our house. Being capable of displaying video images makes these ads quite an attention getter. This billboard displays several different ads, showing each one for a few seconds, them moving on to the next one.

Day 142

Today's picture is of my corn salad that I prepared for our department lunch tomorrow. It has everything except the chili cheese Fritos, which have to be added just before it's served.
