May has come and gone. We've enjoyed some unseasonably cool(ish) weather along with some welcome rain. That's certainly different for these parts. How else was may different?
Firehouse Subs offered all Mikes a free steak sandwich. Fortunately, middle names counted, as well as different versions of Mike, like Michelle, for the ladies. I'm Charles Michael, Will is William Michael, so we chowed down on our free sandwiches while John had to pay for his! I've never eaten at Firehouse, so that was also different.
This is me enjoying a beer standing in the outfield of Baylor Baseball Stadium. Baylor is a Baptist university and alcohol has always been banned but lately they have been opening their facilities to others and those others allow alcohol sales.
The 'others' in this particular case was Mr. Willie Nelson. At 94, the life he loves is STILL making music with his friends. He attended Baylor briefly as a young man, coming from the small town of Abbott, just up the road from us. He was banned from performing on campus back in the early 80s. The current president invited him back to play for us.
Route 66 is celebrating its Centennial Anniversary this year. Tulsa threw a big part and even set a world record! There were some interesting vehicles in the record setting parade. https://www.visittulsa.com/parade/
This is the Catoosa Blue Whale. It's a Route 66 landmark. Swimming is no longer allowed but they cleaned it all up for the Centennial. https://www.cityofcatoosa.org/page/blue-whale-of-catoosa/
There's my different May. I wonder what June will bring? Make sure you check out the other entries and join in next time.
