Woody trike
For being a small town, even one in close proximity to a "big" city, Moore has a lot of cool businesses to offer. This awesome trike is custom made by Trinity Trikes, just up the road from my house. They make some of the coolest three-wheelers I've ever seen.
I can picture you on that bike with Ozzie in a basket on back. Wouldn't that be fun? Looks pretty comfy too...perfect for say, a long cross country trip to...oh, I don't know, maybe Idaho?
That would be so much fun, then riding around Idaho with you would be awesome. I wish I could afford it. The have one that's actually enclosed like a car that he could sit inside with me. Their trikes are awesome.
Oklahoma is called the Sooner State, because when the state was opened up land was given away not by lottery but by land run, in a "shotgun start" style. At a certain time, all the settlers lined up at the starting line took off at a dead run and ran as fast as their buggies, coaches, buckboards, horses and legs could take them until they could find land that no one had claimed, 160 acres at a time. Unfortunately, not everyone waited for the starting shot and took off Sooner than they were supposed to: hence, the Sooner State. This bronze statue, actually a series of statues depicting the land run, is found along the canal in Bricktown, in downtown Oklahoma City (OKC) and when finished will be the largest bronze statuary in the world.
