Saturday Fun Day

Saturday is Chuck's birthday and Diane knows he would love to ride on his birthday. Someone had posted a thing about Magnetic Hill on Facebook a while back and since we had been there before we hatch a plan to ride to Magnetic Hill. This is a famous spot in Oklahoma near the Springer exit off Interstate  35.
We decide to meet up at the intersection of Highway 7 and Interstate 35. When Keith and I leave the house it is a bit cool and damp. 

My brother lives near our meeting place so he is going to ride with us.  

Is still had not warmed up very much and we are all bundled up.


We head out and what do we see....Road Construction!!!



This was an exciting trip just down the road we see.....Cows


And we haven't even made it to our destination. 

Here is a link  Magnetic Hill
It is a really neat place. We had a time trying to find the exact spot and then get our bikes to roll up the hill. It is really hard to balance and roll at the same time. I tried to get a video
but I need to practice, it didn't turn out.
After we spend some time rolling around we head to Ardmore. My brother needed to go to Longhorn Scooters to get a part for his bike. We had fun looking/playing around in the store.



We are now getting hungry my brother suggested "The Two Frogs" in Ardmore. So we jump on our bikes

 and head into town. My brother had asked me to take a picture of him as he rides down the highway so...
 
I tried
 
and tried
 
and tried
 
 
As you can see I'm not very good at taking moving pictures. 
 
While we were eating lunch we got to talking about uncommon names of women that we know, we mentioned Doreen. We ride with Doreen, she impresses me because she rides her own bike. Her husband is Allen, as we are walking out of the restaurant Allen follows us out. They are in Ardmore with the boys and ate at the same place. It was so weird, you definitely need to make sure you never talk bad about people, they might be just around the corner. 
As we are heading back to Davis, Diane takes some pictures of my brother since mine were so bad.

 
Hers are much better but then she is the queen of pictures!
We stop in Davis to say goodbye to my brother and Lizzie decides to make an appearance. (I have lost my picture of Lizzie Oh No! )
The day is still young so we decide to ride up the highway to Norman to drink a cup of coffee. Don't ask me what highway I just ride on the back. You can see lots of unusual things from the back like....

A car on fire at the ice place.
When we get to the Starbucks we start talking about Lizzie and how she has been away at college. We decide she had to make some friends so....

We find....Star Bucks (she will make her debut in a few weeks)
We had a great day with our friends just laughing and riding and eating. The things we do best. 

And last but not least my view from the back!

You described our day perfectly. Yes, it was a great day....but it always is if we are riding. Can't wait to see Miss "Star bucks". :) Lizzy will be so happy to have a friend riding with us.
