Tis' the weekend before Christmas and all through the house everyone is doing their own thing, giving me time to click this mouse. Mixing some music I've come across in the course of the year, all in the hopes of giving you some holiday cheer. Some of the music is traditional and others quite not. But I hope you enjoy this music that I have brought.

The Blog Oklahoma Family and I wish you the best in this holiday season. Merry Christmas everyone.

Back during the summer of 2006, my wife, son, and I decided to take a short excursion through western Oklahoma. Our goal besides having a fun family afternoon drive was to find a few historic places north of Cheyenne, Oklahoma.

Podcast Correction: I transposed the highway numbers when I recorded the podcast. Highway US 283 is correct. I say 238 by mistake.

Hot off the heels of a busy Thanksgiving week comes an entire month of holidays, office work, and family happenings. All this tends to make this one of the busiest times of the year. So before we get too far in the busy season I would like to wish all of you a happy Hanukkah, a merry Christmas, a festive New Year, and a most heart felt, "Welcome to Blog Oklahoma"
