It’s been almost two weeks since Meg & I flew into Oklahoma City with the Eclipse Explorers from the Schiele Museum in Gastonia, NC, to spend eight days visiting the area, and of course making sure we were in the Path of Totality for the eclipse. Our first stop was at the National Okahoma City Memorial, commemorating the bombing of the Alfred P Murrah Federal Building in 1995. I didn’t get just a ton of pictures – it was just so moving and so emotional that I forgot to take them a lot of the time. I did get this list of some of the offices that were located in the building – there were two lists like this, with different offices, but of course the one with the day care center listed was so sad.
Just going back and looking at these pictures is bringing tears to my eyes again. We learned that every player for the Oklahoma City Thunder NBA team is required to tour the museum before they are signed, to learn what Oklahoma City is all about. It’s a pretty emotional place.
