Can't beat Chicago area in August ... are you kidding, we get like 3 awsome months and that is one of em! Plus, Oak Brook mall will have some, well, um ... nice scenery too for you if the weather is at all nice! Let me know when you are here, will meet you for a cold one.This message has been edited by Ray on 01-27-2005 at 04:57 PM

Mike,,,,,Tulsa is a great place to visit.i don't know how long your staying,interests or hobbies(besides prowlin'),but there are a few things to see & do.there are a couple of great museums(Phibrook,Gilcrease),excellent restaurants,AWESOME BBQ,nice golf courses.probably one of the best places to visit is called the TALLGRASS PRAIRIE PRESERVE NATURE CONSERVANCY.it's about 30,000 acres of prairie with approx. 2700 head of buffalo and no fences, you could walk right up to them,but i'm sure common sense would kick in.there's a car show or cruise-in almost every weekend.anyway there's a few ideas,if you head ths way give me a call and i'll buy ya a beer.

Been there twice in the last 12 months ... aside from golf ... WAS pretty quiet! Heard there's lots of old oil money down there ... but still woulda picked Oak Brook for Bama to come to ... oh well ... perhaps we can hook up during my next trip there Mike ... maybe late March or April.

Sounds like a lot of great and interesting things to do. I've never been to OK...If we could make it to Texas, we can make it to Oklahoma. That's one of the great things about the Prowler events, especially when we go to new areas of the country. New things to see and do............and new places to cruise!
