Storm Chasing Vehicle

It is not unusual to see various versions of this vehicle in Norman on occasion. It is used by storm chasers to go into a tornado (or as close as humanly possible). This one was parked in the post office parking lot today when I went to drop off our mail. I, just like all the other gawkers, had to take pictures too. If you watch the Weather channel, or sometimes the History Channel and/or the Discovery channels, they will have specials about storm chasers and their vehicles.



This is a picture from the circus that we went to on Sunday at the Cox Convention Center. Joe had to work the show and Kaitlyn, Michael, Kristen, Casey and me all went. It was fun except when I had to go to the bathroom. I mean there is ALWAYS a line into the ladies room, right? Only this time, for every woman in line, she had 3 or 4 little children with her. So instead of 30 people in line, there were like 90. Glad I didn't wait until the last minute.....


These were the German chocolate cupcakes I purchased for Kaitlyn and Joe's birthday celebration. I've managed to eat about half of them myself. They were good, too!
