Oklahoma City
Day 2

The primary task that we wanted to get done on Tuesday morning is to attend a session at the OKC LDS Temple. We got there at 9:30 or 10 and had to wait for the 10:45 session.









We did get to do the session ok but it was rather tedious. I was waiting for 45 minutes or so and there was no chapel so I resorted to pacing up and down the hallway. There were a few other things too but I won't discuss them here.


After we finished at the temple, at 1:30 or so, we went to the National Cowboy Museum. There was SO much stuff there, some of it even interesting. There was an 'Hollywood' section, a 'rodeo' section, a 'calvary' section, and several more that I can't think of right now. Pretty interesting. Also, there was and extensive Native American bead art exhibit that was moderately interesting.

I took this photo out in the foyer. I had the wife stand in front of it to make it clear how humongous this statue is:




Then we had some bbq for lunch and it was on to the 45th Infantry Division Museum.

This was really interesting to go through although we only had 20 or 30 minutes until closing time. The interior(no pictures) had a large firearms collection, a nazi memorabilia room, US infantry vehicles, canons...all sorts of stuff. I wish that we had had more time to look through it all.
Outside was just as interesting though; there were all kinds of US armed forces vehicles & aircraft on display.







It was really cool to see all those vehicles.

After that we picked up some dinner and headed back to Texas. It was a nice getaway.
