I also have been to a majority of states (including Oklahoma) and quite a few countries in Europe.

I noticed that you said nothing feels lke home except Oklahoma and I guess that would be true if you are from there or have spent a lot of time there. However after reflection I realize that you don't really claim it is the best place to live. Very smart.

When I visited Oklahoma the citizens were warm and friendly but I ddi not leave thinking "I just have to live here, it is the best place on earth!!!".

However it is true that OK has the good fortune of at least being NEXT TO one of the best places on earth - Texas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I knew there was some redeeming quality about you!

Well, you can always visit triumphant1's church that he pastors; that's a good place to start.

Then ORU is very impressive; that's where my daughter graduated. There is a pair of HUGE solid brass praying hands in the front of the campus that is worth seeing. The prayer tower is interesting, as it has the history of Oral Roberts' life and the school on video. ORU is at Lewis & 71st, I think.

There is a shopping plaza called Utica Square that has great shops.

Willie George's church/youth center is amazing to go visit.

Let's see....good restaurants would be Cheddars, Zio's (my fave), Charleston's, and a lot more by the mall that I can't think of right now. I think the mall is at 71st and Memorial, but I'm not positive.

Outside of the southern Tulsa area, I'm completely lost and have not been anywhere else.

People don't go to Tulsa to "do things"!!!

Actually I have heard that Dunkin Donuts there will let you come watch the yeast rise.

All I know about the Duncan area is that I have an uncle and aunt that live there.............and they are not Pentecostal.
