Fall break so a day to OKC!
We needed to make a trip to OKC so decided to make a day of it. Our grandson came along which made it a special day! We met our daughter for lunch at a pizza place close to her office - Pizza 23. We like to go to locally owned restaurants when we can so Michele suggested Pizza 23. It is a cute little pizza joint on 23rd st. Pizza and salad were both very good! Right next door is the Orange Leaf but I was able to not give in to temptation :-)
Oklahoma City National Memorial
Owen had asked if we could go to the Bombing Memorial since he'd been last year with his class but was very rushed. Sure! It had been a few years since we'd been. I really hate to say but either my memory is very bad or they have added a lot to the museum about the bombers. My personal opinion, there should only be a very small section that is about them. This place should be a memorial to the victims and the survivors not the the horrible men that caused it. That's my 2 cents.
The outside is a wonderful memorial! A very calm and restful setting with the memorial chairs placed where the building once stood. The reflection pool is where the street once was located.
