Went for the 100 year anniversary parade. So much to see and take in that we didn't get everything we wanted to do done in a day. Great time!

Nice place to stop and stretch. The visitors center was closed when we were there. Even though it was prime time on a week day. So no restrooms. The train was fun to look at. It was a great spot for photos.

Attended a dance put on by Tulsa Oklahoma swing syndicate featuring the amazing Savoy Trio jazz band. It was the perfect venue to get your kicks on RT 66!!
