If you haven’t been back to Oklahoma City in awhile, it has changed a lot. Many years ago we had “urban renewal.” More recently it has been the restoration of “Bricktown,” the creation of a canal system, or “river walk,” and a new ball park to rival any in the country.
The North Canadian has had several dams and locks added to it, and the section that flows through Oklahoma City is now called the Oklahoma River.
Tonight, I’m going to give you the merest taste of what an Oklahoma River cruise is all about, but it’s late, and the point in time when our blue orb rotates into a position where the lat/lon I’m writing from has a line of sight to ol’ Sol is rapidly approaching, and it waits for no man (i.e., I gotta work tomorrow).
Here are a couple of pics:
The boats carry in the neighborhood of 16 passengers, give or take. On weekend evenings, perhaps limited to certain seasons, one can enjoy entertainment and refreshments on such a cruise.
Go here to see more and perhaps buy tickets.
