I got my bags packed on a roll heading out there and I'm ready to go looking real good

Amateur Traveler episode episode 545.

Today the Amateur Traveler talks about Cowboys and Native Americans oil, pigeons, and

Sooners as we go to Oklahoma City.

I know that I should be heading home

but maybe not, maybe not to the day.

Welcome to the amateur traveler. I'm your host Chris Christensen. Again we'd be

talking about you right now if you were sponsoring this episode but instead

let's talk about Oklahoma City. I'd like to welcome to the show Sheila Scarborough

from tourism currents.com who also blogs at perceptive Travel.com and Sheila has come to talk to us about

Oklahoma City. Sheila welcome to the show.

Hi Chris, thank you. It's a pleasure to be here. And Sheila and I have been friends for some time now.

I don't know how many years at this point.

This is her first time on amateur traveler.

Sheila, what is your connection with Oklahoma City?

I have made several trips to Oklahoma City.

I actually live in Central Texas, but it's a straight shot pretty much up Interstate 35

And I've gone there several times for conferences.

I've also done some social media training workshops

with the tourism people there in Oklahoma City.
