Chillin'

As I was walking around the OU Campus (I'm still a Cowboy fan...I was there for a convention) this shot just caught my eye. The statue is half-way sunk into the ground. I thought it was pretty cool, so I took a picture.

Rejuvenation

I was impressed walking around the campus. I hadn't been to OU in about 10 years, and the last time I was there it looked like it was about to fall down. They've really done a lot of work...I guess having a National Championship Football team is incentive enough to fix up the campus.

Close up of Canada......Cody Canada

I went and saw Cody Canada & Stoney LaRue do an acoustic show at the Wormy Dog in OKC last night. They played from 9:30 to 1:45 and put on a great show. This shot is of Cody Canada that I took after I just walked backstage. It's amazing what you can get away with when you are carrying around a nice camera.
