Route 66!

C3 went for a car ride today. We decided to see the sights on Route 66 between Tulsa and Oklahoma City. It was a perfect sunny day for our trip. First Stop- Round Barn in Arcadia, Oklahoma.

Build in 1898 it was originally used to house livestock, and also as a place where

dances were held for local townspeople.

Today a small band was playing music on the second floor of the barn. You can rent out his space for events. It was actually pretty neat up there. Colton and Daddy looking through the window.

Second Stop- POPS

Arcadia, Oklahoma

500 Different types of Pop (yes they call it POP in Oklahoma!!) to choose from!

We got a 6 pack.

We asked Colton what he wanted. Out of all the pop options,

he picked Apple Jacks cereal!

For a place with 500 different kinds of Pop, they did not have many options for milk. So Colton ate his cereal with STRAWBERRY MILK! Nasty! He loved it!

3rd Stop- Blue Whale

Catossa, Oklahoma

Mr. Davis built the Blue Whale early 1970's as a wedding anniversary gift for his Wife. She collected whale figures. The Blue Whale quickly became a local favorite swimming hole. Due to lack of funds, the Davis family closed the swimming hole in 1988.

It is now a Roadside Attraction on Route 66.

Thankfully, swimming is no longer allowed. The water was NASTY!

We have a great day seeing the sights of Route 66.
