If you're looking for family fun look to the smaller towns around you and their festivals. Mangum, OK hosts a Rattlesnake Derby each year and it's a fun event to visit.
I feel like I was lied to a lot as a child. I may have continued some of those lies when I became a parent. It wasn't that I was trying to intentionally lie to my child. It was just stuff I was told when I was a kid. Yes, I believed my parents.
If you're wanting to get out of town for the morning, but don't want to spend a ton of money, and you want to see something cool, then have I got a quick trip for you.
