In eastern Oklahoma, QT stands for QuikTrip. \u00a0QuikTrips are real clean, real busy places in the greater Tulsa area. \u00a0When in the 918, I routinely stop to get fuel, maybe buy a bundle of their refrigerated bbq pork rib sandwiches and even use the toilets, as they are normally clean. \u00a0Heck, back in 1987 or 88, my steer and I were bought at the Tulsa Premium Sale by QT and Jack Zink. \u00a0I still remember talking to Mr. Zink. \u00a0That dude was wicked smart. \u00a0 Google that deal.<\/p>\n
Saturday afternoon found the Dragon Lady and I making a Quick Trip to T-Town. \u00a02 pickups at a high rate of speed. \u00a0Well, other than the semi trailer that was hit by a train in Enid. \u00a0Quick detour around mid-Enid. \u00a0We made it to Tulsa, checked into the Hampton, then hit Academy for comfortable shoes (because we are old) then went to the Outback Steakhouse for a nice meal.<\/p>\n
The hotel was good but somebody a few doors down was WAY drunk. \u00a0He was polite but he obviously couldn’t find a room key. \u00a0He kept politely knocking on a room door. \u00a0“Open the G D door now. \u00a0Please open the G D, MFing door now.” \u00a0 I’m just guessing but I think that he ate either pizza or chicken wings by the elevator doors as there was a mess there that had some bacon bits, red pepper and dang sure a puddle of ranch dressing.<\/p>\n
This morning, Tammy and I loaded ag mechanics projects, agronomy projects, ag comm stuff and other items\u2026.in the rain. \u00a0It was a scavenger hunt to find everything. \u00a0Actually, we didn’t find all of our projects. \u00a0I think the term Shit Show would apply.<\/p>\n
We made a quick trip back to NW OK. \u00a0We have always taken care of hauling livestock properly. But, this hauling ag projects in general makes you want to get some Lloyd’s of London insurance. \u00a0Customers, parents and grandparents are wanting their prize kid’s projects back in fine form. \u00a0Whew!!!! \u00a0 I just wish that the fair officials, FFA staff and others in charge cared a little bit about these projects. \u00a0Unreal! \u00a0Some stops have clean restrooms while others always have skid marks and floaters. \u00a0This deal wasn’t a clean pickup.<\/p>\n
As an ag teacher, you want to help kids show off their projects. \u00a0Hell, scholarships and awards are dependent on these items. \u00a0But, when they get tore up, abused and lost\u2026.well, it just makes one want to use bad language\u2026..$@#@#() 77 & W (Eu79eqw7e9E&(FFFFFF \u00a0$$$ UUUU \u00a0.!!!! \u00a0 Call or text if you need an interpretation. \u00a0I don’t like lazy, I don’t like excuses and I don’t like lack of respect for other peoples stuff.<\/p>\n
Other than that\u2026.it was a Quick Trip to Tulsa but Tammy and I had a Quality Time together eating Quality Tasty foods like lobster, shrimp and sirloin. \u00a0Oddly enough, I don’t normally care for a grilled sirloin but Outback does a bang up job on their sirloin.<\/p>\n
I’m done. \u00a0 Waiting on a big bowl of tater soup with bacon. \u00a0The temps are getting right\u2026.finally.<\/p>\n
Actually, there is more. \u00a0Last night at dinner, Tammy told me that her parents were going to see Charlie Pride in concert. \u00a0 Wait? What? \u00a0 I like Charlie Pride. \u00a0Heck, we all love “Kiss an Angel Good Morning” but people, in all seriousness, read the bio on this guy. \u00a0He is a civics\/social studies\/athletics\/work ethic\/success story lesson all wrapped up in \u00a0one package. \u00a0 \u00a0Great American! \u00a0I WISH that I would have been watching Charlie Pride in concert. \u00a0He ain’t young. \u00a0Seriously, read up on this dude. \u00a0Unreal!<\/p>\n
Peace out, have a good one, a better tomorrow and above all else\u2026.remember that there is a higher power. \u00a0The ground was wet so I trimmed hooves on mature bucks. \u00a0Whooo!! \u00a0That ain’t fun but it’s dun for awhile.<\/p>\n
