Oklahoma is better than just OK

I'm visiting California and it hits me, Oklahoma is a really great place to live. The cost of living is low (very affordable), the food is extremely tasty (although that taste is probably slightly fattening), and our state's budget is a balanced one. Now that may not seem important to you but consider this...California which has high priced living and high priced food, for all the money they spend there is flat broke. So much so, they are trying to sell off some of their tourist destinations (which should be making the state money) to raise money for their government. Can you imagine our government selling off the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum or Beavers Bend State Park or Grand Lake to raise money to pay our state's bills? I don't know about you, but I'm glad our legislature takes the time and effort to make sure we live within our means. It's a good lesson to learn for our own lives in the ever tightening economy.

Well it's time for our tour of San Francisco (hopefully there's something left to see). I'll chatatcha later!

Summer is fast approaching

Summer is fast approaching and now that we're out of our monsoon season (at least I hope so) it will be easier for us to go out and get more stories to show you about Oklahoma.

Recently, we went to Lawton and recorded several stories so be looking for those to air sometime this summer. We are always looking for story ideas. If you have an idea, please send it to me. I can't guarantee that we will cover it, but you never know. We have covered stories viewers have told us about. We appreciate each call or email we get because its nice to know that people are watching and care about what we show.

We also love to know what you think about the show. There's a survey to the right of this blog. Please take a moment and tell us how you like our show. We try to be relevant and current with our stories and hope you enjoy them. If not, please let me know.

School is just about out, so watch out for those young people to be running around your town. Stay safe and I'll chatatcha later!
