Broken Bow Day 3 part 2

Brody and Savannah had been telling us how good the food and beer was at this brewery.  So we decided to eat a late lunch here.

Luther and I both ate the hamburger steak with mushroom gravy, salad and fries. It was really 

 Very likely if we are back in this area we would eat here again.  Brody had bought some beer back to cabin.  Although I did not try any of the crafted beer.  

This post is heavy on pictures.  I must say this trip to Broken Bow has fulfilled my dreams of being here.  Was a great vacation for both Mr. C. and I.  

 

Day 3 Broken Bow

They really like to utilize Big Foot as part of their tourism.  

At this particular gift store you will see a portion of the gifts they offer with Big Foot.  

Plenty of Big Foot items to choose from featuring Big Foot.  That isn’t my thing at all.

Going to eat breakfast with the family. 

I had the western omelette with jalapeños.  It came with potatoes and biscuit and gravy. 

I couldn’t eat everything, but sure did attempt it.  Sweet tea was really good.  Mr. C. ate over easy eggs, potatoes & sausage and toast and jelly. 

Seems like most stores has outside decorations.

I’m crazy about trains.  We are getting ready to take a 30 minute train ride. 

Mr. C. And I on a train again.  Although a much smaller train.  Our last train ride was on the Oklahoma Heartland Train.  We went from Pauls Valley to Fort Worth Texas many years ago.

Loco Joe is our train conductor.  He was very informative about Broken Bow history. He did a great job keeping us entertained. 

Getting to see the deer up close was a bonus.  So many deer.  Which we can see lots of deer at our local lake.  

Lane was happy on his pony ride. Landon did not enjoy the pony ride as he only went one round.

Okie girls coffee and ice cream.  We shared a banana split.  They are making bank at $12.95 for this treat. A 16 ounce shake was $9.95.  My hubbie was wanting a shake but not at that price.

I had heard that the Blue Rooster for quite awhile.  Was happy to be able to give the food a try. 

The outside decorations are very cute.  So I knew we were at the correct place.  

A Quick Look at the menu’s.  

Brody got a Bloody Mary. It looked very good.  

Would you believe I forgot once again to take pictures of the food.  We went with 2 pounds of catfish, fries and fried okra. It also came with hush puppies.  

Here’s my tray of food.  Liked the convenience of the paper trays, did not have silverware either.  Simple way of serving everyone.  Would say also inexpensive  on overhead expenses. 

Brody ordered the appetizer of fried jalapenos and fried pickles.  I especially enjoyed the appetizer.

Brody, Lane, Landon and Savannah enjoying their meal.

The upstairs was cool. Something for everyone to do.  My favorite was the pac man game.  That was one of my favorite arcade games back in my younger days.  Will admit I wasn’t very good playing it today.  

Lane and Grampa playing with the games upstairs.  I might be wrong but I think Lane was the winner.😂

Brody grilled out for us. It was so darn good. One of the best steaks I have had in ages.  Normally I need steak sauce, not with this steak.  Food is always better with family members.

 

Day 2 of Broken Bow part 1

It’s raining this morning. We had plans on going fishing this morning after we have pancakes for breakfast.  Savannah made the breakfast while Me. C. And I snuggled with Lane and Landon.  Couldn’t ask for a better morning.

A perfect view this morning. I came outside to eat and take in the view.  I always enjoy using vacation time to ground myself to nature. Will also do my daily devotional outside while taking in the majestic views of nature.  

Was glad everyone came out with me.  We had lots of laughs. 

Brody, Lsne and Mr. C.

Savannah,Landon and Brody.  Savannah made the pancakes for everyone.  They were so yummy! 

Couldn’t leave myself out of the pictures. Did it even happen if you aren’t in photos?  For many years I refused to take pictures of me.  Then I realized that I am who I am bigger gal and all. Missed out on many great photo opportunities thru the years. 

This area is so beautiful.  The trees at home are not this tall.  Definitely was intrigued by the height and how they surround the cabin on 3 sides.  Have seen several deer running around in the area. 

Broken Bow lake is huge. I had no ideal how large it was.  We only seen a small part of the lake today.  We were able to find a shoreline to fish from this morning.  We fished for several hours with no luck.  

My hubbie getting my fishing pole ready for me to use.  I should insert here that I am not a seasoned fisherman.  He is hoping to teach me so I will be able to put my bait on by self and take off a fish. But most importantly that I learn to cast my pole.

We all agree this probably wasn’t a great place to fish.  We were literally on top of rocks. But I did practice my casting technique.  Will not be earning any awards, did enjoy being out in nature. That was the best part being outside and enjoying life.

Savannah and Lane.  Savannah sure enjoys fishing and doesn’t mind touch the bait.  She throws her line way out there as well.

Landon is going to be our rock hound. Seemed like he picked up a thousand rocks. He needed pockets on his shorts where he could have brought his treasures back to cabin with him. Our grand boys are living their best life.
