CITIZENS TOWER - OKLAHOMA CITY

Citizens Tower and the "Gold Dome" bank at NW 23rd Street and Classen Boulevard in Oklahoma City. My office was in the Tower from 1990 to 2004. The Tower is now residential condos and the dome is an office complex.

NYE 2007 WITH THE FLAMING LIPS

On New Year's Eve 2007, the Flaming Lips played at the Cox Business Services Convention Center Arena (formerly the Myriad) in Oklahoma City. Another great concert by the Lips, especially "Bohemian Rhapsody."

OKLAHOMA CENTENNIAL

The State of Oklahoma culminated a year-long celebration of its Centennial on November 16, 2007. We attended the parade in Guthrie OK (the state's first capitol), went in the Oklahoma Sports Museum (which includes some of my father's memorabilia of the OKC 89'ers) and then walked to a barbecue at Mineral Wells Park (where the original statehood celebration took place).
