Old Man with a Hat
So, I pulled the Imperial out of the shop, rounded up the lovely wife and handsome sons, and went for a Sunday drive a day early. With temps in the high 50s and a clear, sunny sky, it was a perfect day for a little cruise in the big Imp. I was going to go to Cars-n-Coffee this morning, but slept in till about nine, so screw that.
We jumped onto the highway, to which the car immediately gets attention. One thing I love about this car is that is does draw the admiring stares and glances. That's always fun.
Drove around in downtown OKC a bit and drove around the entertainment district; an area called Bricktown. It has a cool canal running through it with little riverboats that will take you from one end to the Oklahoma River at the other end. Lots of restaurants and such, too. We went and ate pizza at one of the very best places in OKC, called Hideaway. If you ever come to OKC, it is mandatory that you eat there. The tough part was finding parking that wouldn't pose a threat to the Imperial; and alas, I found a great end spot in the street. Cool part was people-watching, and them looking at the car as if it just landed from Mars or something.
So, we put about 35 miles on the car today, just having a little fun and food on what turned out to be a very pleasant and enjoyable day.
What did YOU do this afternoon?
