Yes, because immediately afterward everyone was looking at each other, saying, "Did you feel that?" These are a pretty new experience here, so it was immediately followed by, "Earthquake! YAAAAY!"

I'm moving back soon so I hope that doesn't ever happen again

What's the name of that big park on the west side of Tulsa??

You're moving back to OKC?

Riverside? It's the biggest park in Tulsa. Other than that, there's Reed Park, which is kind of big, and then there's the park where they do the rock climbing and that kind of stuff....Chandler Park. Couldn't remember the name of it for a minute. It's almost to Sand Springs.

Yes, good ole OKC.. get to pick up my twang again and get rid of this MN accent that I hate.

Hmm, none of those park names ring a bell but it's been a long time. Maybe Chandler. It's off of 244 and Yale at the very end maybe?? Trying to job my memory here.

That is not the west side. LOL

There is a small park off 244 and Yale called Turner Park, but it's not very big. (Good thing I used to work for the Parks Department. LOL There are about 150 parks in Tulsa.)

Wait, I think you mean on the North Side, by the zoo, maybe? Mohawk Park? It has a nature center and the zoo and it's a big park too.

The street view outside the place I get my hair done.

One of my favorite streets in Tulsa.

thedivahrrrself · 09-22-2012, 06:54 PM

This is the view from my office. I love that in our downtown, there are several little pocket parks. This is a hot spot for the food trucks. You see them get there sometimes at like 9 or 10 just to run the other guys off the sweet spot.

thedivahrrrself · 09-22-2012, 06:57 PM

Local t-shirt designers Lewis and Cluck came up with the phrase Don't Hate the 918. Of course they had to do the I ♥ theme too...

Hello,

Just read through this thread and it sounds inviting.
I know a little bit about Tulsa.I know there is a Whirlpool building around there some where.I work at the one in Ohio and in march it will be 30 years.At one point i even thought of getting some kind of transfer out there just to get out of town.I definately need a change and am looking for something else.There have been several people in management getting transfered out there because of trouble they were in here.Not all of them but a few.Some come back but usually they stay.Definately a thought.Cheep living and a job the next day.Cant beat that.I am sure i would be looking for something else and not back at the "Big W".Not real happy there.
If someone can manage to get a picture of that building and post it i would be forever grateful.I never saw a picture of it.

Thank you for the thread Diva.
I enjoyed reading.

thedivahrrrself · 09-23-2012, 04:18 PM

That's the best google could do. LOL

I know a lot of folks out at Whirlpool. They must like it, because they seem to stay a long time!

Whirlpool is maybe 10-15 minutes from downtown. The drive is nice because you're kind of going the opposite of what everyone else is doing. If you like the suburbs, it's very close to Owasso, which a lot of people like.

I prefer Tulsa proper, but I'm not much of a suburbanite.
