Happy 100th Birthday, Oklahoma


Oklahoma attained statehood on this date back in 1907 and has been having a celebration all year, but especially this weekend.

At some point this weekend, native sons Toby Keith and Garth Brooks will be performing. Plus, today was a state holiday.

I've been in Oklahoma on several occasions while driving along Route 66. I didn't expect much as far as scenery but it is a beautiful rolling land with lots of things to do.

And, a large chunk of Route 66 goes through it.  This is my third favorite Route 66 state, after Illinois and Missouri.

So, Happy Birthday, You Sooners. --RoadDog
