Default Fun in Tulsa

Hey guys,

One fun thing to would be to make the trip to Bartlesville, ('bout and hour North), and go to Woolaroc Museum

Here's an excerpt from the Bartlesville home page. It's quite a place!
************************************************** **
Will Rogers said, "Of all the places in the United States, Woolaroc is the most unique."

Deriving its name from WOODS, LAKES, and ROCKS, Woolaroc was the ranch retreat for Phillips Petroleum founder Frank Phillips. "Uncle Frank" hosted U.S. Presidents, dignitaries, tycoons, heroes and stars of the day on his sprawling ranch southwest of Bartlesville.

Woolaroc has evolved into a museum and wildlife preserve. The museum houses over 55,000 pieces including some of the Southwest's greatest collections of western and worldwide art, relics and exhibits. The open air wildlife preserve allows American, South American and African wildlife to roam freely in natural enclosures.

From early spring to late fall, the North Road Tour features a five-mile drive through some of the most beautiful portions of the Woolaroc preserve. This tour includes a stop at an authentic restoration of an 1840's Trader's Camp where true to life mountain-men offer a glimpse of early settler living.


Tammi and I are both from Tulsa and will be in attendace at this event FOR SURE!!!!
