A big video file of Kaitlyn enjoying the Olive Garden!

a very big video file of Kaitlyn 07082006

Well, what a Saturday Ann and I had! I started out walking my 8 miles and then worked my way through the photos to load online. Jon called about 10 and said to meet them in OKC for lunch at Olive Garden across from Penn Square... and YOU KNOW we could not say no to an Olive Garden dining experience coupled with seeing our grand daughter Kaitlyn and visiting with Jon and Randi... so off we went. As we headed out the door, I looked at all the tires, and the drivers side was a bit low compared to others, but hey... so what, right! So off we went. We ran by the bank, and headed to OKC, arriving there at about 11:35 and made our way to the appointed meeting place. Jon and family joined us about 12:10 and we ordered... ate, and my steak was cooked well done.. and I ordered medium rare... so they made me smile, and we enjoy lunch as the pics will show you... and our short visit with Kaitlyn.. and we said our goodbyes and Jon's headed off to SAMS and mom and I headed to Epperson's Camera... I wanted to see about video camera ... for doing interviews with PCL, etc. and as we parked we noticed the drivers tire has a piece of it coming loose. But, being true campers, haha, we went into the store... got what we needed, came out and headed to find a walmart... which we did and after 2.5 hours wait, the little man made us smile by replacing both tires on the front for only half the price of one!! We then headed home, by way of Radio Shack and of course it is now 7pm.. so CiCi's.. close to Stillwater Radio Shack... and home by 8! This is not the kind of day we had planned, it was good we went by the bank... and good we went to Epperson's... or we might have been headed home with a tire that would have blown out in the heat and .... ok, haha, fast driving!! So in the end, if Jon had not called and we had not got to see Kaitlyn and Randi and Jon... Ann might have had a blow out on the way to work... and she would have been fit to be tied!!! So, all in all... it was a GREAT DAY! Thanks Jonathan, for the invite!! Enjoy the day... maybe it will rain some, huh?  Posted by Picasa
