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 223

Today, I snapped a picture of an egg shaped clock that Shawn has had next to the bed for some time. Alyssa likes to play with it and press all of the buttons. It looks like she may have changed the date on it.

Day 222

Today, I got up early to go to the start of the Oklahoma MS 150 bike ride, so I could take some pictures. Here's a picture of one of the bike teams at the starting line of the race.

Day 220

Today, we went to a special member's night at the zoo. These are always cool because you get a behind the scenes look at what's happening at the zoo. In this picture you can see Alyssa and Shawn in the bear exhibit at the zoo. Everyone was allowed to enter the bear exhibit through the back door, passing just a few feet away from the bears who were in cages, just behind the exhibit.

Today, I stopped at the park to find a geocache. While I was there, I snapped this picture of some water bugs.

Day 218

Today, Shawn suggested that I snap a picture of the blue night stand that she stained and finished for Greg's room. We bought this as a kit, that you assemble and finish yourself. I put it together and Shawn finished it with blue stain and several coats of clear finish. We bought custom drawer pulls to match other items Greg picked out for the room.

Day 217

Today's picture is of the Admiral Twin drive-in. This drive-in theater is still in operation. There is another screen on the opposite side. You can see that all the speaker stands no longer have speakers on them. They broadcast the audio on two different FM frequencies now.
