OKC with a Chevy

Well, I am stuck in Oklahoma City (no offense to those that actually live here) for a week and the rental car is a Chevy Silverado. I guess it could be worse, they were going to stick me in a Dodge first. I begged and pleaded for a Ford but they said they were all out . Oh well, next week I will be back at home with my truck. 8 days and counting.

Been there many times. My dad is a retired radar tech. Is Crystal's Pizza still there? As kids, me and my brother used to love going there. Kind of a highlight of the trip while visiting my dad when he went to school.

It's not too bad, one class my dad had lasted 3 months.. It was hell on all of us. Everything in the house broke while he was gone, not to mention, his job depended on him passing the class.

The last class I had here was ~3 months. Gets kind of old being away from home for that long. At least it was during the summer so I didn't have to worry about anything freezing, but the weeds took over the yard. The classes nowadays aren't anything like the "olden days". Now they will do everything in their power to get you to pass.

My dad is a radar tech now(ready to retire as soon as they tick him off enough). He was at Battle Mountain NV, Humbolt Radar (Phoenix), and is currently at Ashton Radar (Eastern Idaho).
