Hello from Oklahoma City

We've stopped in Oklahmoa City to eat lunch and take a look at the Memorial. I'm writting from a table inside a Mexican resturant in their "Bricktown."


On Petit Jean Point... Arkansas River behind us. (There were spectacular views, however quite a bit of pollution even in the morning? There was a big plant of sorts, maybe coal electric generation that could be seen in the distance).



The memorial in OK City was very taseteful and touching... I imagine it brings as much peace to the families of the victims as one could after a tradegy like this. The reflecting pool is where the street used to be.




The survival tree... a great old Elm that survived the blast.



And the reason for the memorial... on the site of the building, each chair represents someone who lost their lives, including the half size chairs for the children. Simple, sweet, and approrpiate.
