For years I have asked Mr. C. (hubbie) to go with me to Medicine Park he always declined. I finally asked Cherrie if she’d want to go on our Sunday Funday outing. She said yes! It isn’t very far from my house. So we made plans and off we went to see everything in that area. Just so you know this post is going to be heavy on the pictures. Overall the day was great and I can’t wait to go back especially when they do free concerts.
Cherrie Outside the Harley Shop. She has a fondness for bikers. Was surprised that she didn’t want to go check the store out.
Finally my first Angel wing mural! Hope to find more while out on my outings. I need to start making a list of surrounding areas that have wing murals.
Made Cherrie pose as well. She probably would rather skip pictures.
Found a cute waterfall! I wonder how many waterfall is in my area? That might be something I need to do more research about. Waterfalls make great pictures.
To go swimming it’s $3.00 I think that is a great deal. Although I can remember when it was free to swim.
I have always wanted to eat at The Old Plantation and it did not disappoint. The service was great. Staff was very friendly. I will be going back for sure.
Cherrie will not like this picture of herself. It’s me I don’t know how to take good pictures. Hopefully I will get better as time goes by for me.
Beef tips and baked potato was so tasty. Was amazed that the prices were decent. I figured with it being a tourist destination the prices would be sky high.
Went to Mt. Scott for the incredible views. Cherrie had bad anxiety going up to the top. At first I thought she was just joking. Oh no she was really having trouble with the drive. I probably shouldn’t have laughed at her. I’m a bad friend, am glad she still remains my friend. 32 years of friendship for us!
Experiencing this view is good for my mental health. Fun fact when I was in my early 20’s I lived and worked on Pikes Peak in Colorado Springs. Wish I had pictures from that season of my life.
It’s getting hot outside. I am not an outdoor type person at all. I tell everyone I am more like an indoor cat. I like to be comfortable and inside an air conditioned room.
On to the Wildlife Refuge to see the museum. It has changed quite a bit since I was last there years ago. Am glad we went and seen the different displays.
Wildlife fires do happen so often course the museum must have the firefighter display.
Our last stop was Holy City. We definitely took some pictures of several different things.
The church was very nice. When I stepped thru the doors I felt peaceful and relaxed.
Did like how they decorated this area at back of church. Very serene and beautiful. The Angel reminded me of one I had years ago. Makes me want to find another one for my rock garden.
Overall the day was exactly what my soul needed. It was at a slow pace and we didn’t spend much money. more importantly I felt like I was reconnecting with nature on this beautiful Sunday.
If your ever near Lawton Oklahoma be sure and visit this area. You will enjoy the scenery and the views.
