Wednesday night I had a kitchen pass so toook advantage of it to do some multitasking. I was going to do my two favorite hobbies running and geocaching<\/a> at my favorite place, Tulsa’s River Parks, a network of trails and parks along both banks of the Arkansas River which runs through town.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Tulsa<\/a><\/p>\n

I parked at the soccer fields on  the west bank. West Tulsa is where all the dirty, smelly, nasty industrial stuff in Tulsa is located like the power plant above and the refinery below. The sky views are just as nice if you don’t mind power lines, distillation columns, and smoke stacks.<\/span><\/p>\n

The dirty smelly nasty stuff on the west bank is what provides the money for all the nice stuff on the east bank like chic shopping centers, the opera, the museums, and all the rest. But please don’t be rude and say so if you visit.<\/span><\/p>\n

I headed down the river and made several stops looking for geocaches. Geocachers, fishermen, and homeless people pretty much end up in the same places like this little cove in the Arkansas River where you have a good view of downtown.<\/span><\/p>\n

Or this little view across the river framed by some trees.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have some weather coming in Thursday. We are told it my snow in Tulsa. In May!! Stuff like this didn’t happen before Obama became President. Anybody else besides me notice that? <\/span><\/p>\n

A couple of the caches I was looking for were hid in the rip rap. The clue said “Rocks” do you see it? It took me a while.<\/span><\/p>\n

This doesn’t have anything to do with anything. I just love construction equipment. If I had a gazillion dollars I’d still be driving my Kia Soul but I would definitely have one of these puppys in my back yard. What would I do with it you ask? I don’t mind telling you. I would dig holes with it and then fill them back up. That’s what I would do.<\/span><\/p>\n

Back at the soccer fields. Time to get home. I had a very nice outing.<\/span><\/div>\n
