Sunday mornings I go run with some guys from our Sunday School Class. Actually I haven’t made it too often. Last Sunday morning I showed up at 6 am and nobody was there so I fired up my ipod and brought my camera and off I went by myself.

The Jenks bridge.

This is exciting. It is one of my employer’s pipeline installations. This is called a “Pig Launcher.” A pig is a bullet shaped foam plug that is pushed through a pipeline to get eliminate the liquids that build up and cause excessive pressure drop.

You thought pig launchers are fun, look at this. These are “City Gates” where the gas is delivered to the local utility. Notice the twin dark blue cylinders off to the left center of the photograph. Those are what odorize the gas for residential service. Pipeline quality natural gas is odorless.

Almost back to the car, view across the river to the buildings that once housed Oral Roberts University Medical School and City of Faith Hospital. Oral was told by a 900 foot Jesus to build the medical school and hospital. Oral must have misunderstood. Both the Medical School and the Hospital folded a long time ago.

I got back to the car, time to go to Starbucks right? Wrong! I couldn’t find my keys. They must have fallen out of my fanny pack while taking a photograph.

So guess what, I ran the route again! Instead of 4 miles, I got in 8 miles. I didn’t find my keys, somebody else did. They stopped me and gave them to me when I was almost done with my second lap. Bless them.

Sorry, I wasn’t in the mood to take photographs on my second lap. I was just glad to see those keys. I am absolutely positive that it was my 666BOI license plate that led to the return of my keys.
