May 22nd would work GREAT for me..... I wouldn't be able to make it if we kept it on the 15th.

[Prunepicker]

The Coit's Meeting was great! Soonergirl26, Frisky and I stayed almost to
6pm reading a reverse phone book.

I also learned how to search the Oklahoman archives.

Same here. I've got a lot happening on the weekend of the 15th. Fly Fishing
North Carolina! Prunette has a social thing for me, too. There might be
people there.

Yeah, we were taking a "mental drive" down S. Penn, S. May and SW 59th. What fun!!!

Prune...have you been in the archives all day today????????????

Prune... have you been in the archives all day today?

That mental drive dislodged a bunch of information that's been sitting
stagnate for years!

Almost! I'm having a blast looking through the archives. Thanks for the help.

[FRISKY]

The Coit's Meeting was great! Soonergirl26, Frisky and I stayed almost to 6pm reading a reverse phone book.

Yep, it was a good get-together and it was good to meet the new folks that showed up!

We really enjoyed the old car pictures and school information.

I hope I can find some older Criss-Cross books for the next meeting.

Hey all, I'm gigging at Mickey Mantle's tomorrow night -Friday-
from 7pm -11pm. It's a great R&B band. Lot's of oldies.

Drove by the front of the building, but couldn't find a parking space since there were about 40,000 other people trying to find a place to park. Some lots were charging $20...and the lots were already full!

Maybe next time..................

I found a freebee! Of course I burned $30 in gas looking for it. LOL!
There are usually some east of the Brick (ball park). People don't like to
drive. The Harkin and Bass Pro are good bets, too.

next coit's meeting is may 22, 1:30 pm

[Double Edge]

Well, the person (I still don't recall who at one of the meetings) indicated one more in the vicinity of the Tower theater, plus or minus a few blocks of that location. I remain skeptical about that, but he (it was a guy) was pretty sure.

My granny from that neighborhood took me there and bought me clothes when I was a kid. I think the store was a John A. Brown. Wife said the same when I asked her if she remembered the name of that store.

Concerning the area around the Tower Theater.

ACK! What are you doing on this thread? NO! NO! NO! This is a thread for
(almost) sane people!

At any rate, welcome LOL! Really (almost) welcome!

There was a Brown's on N.W 23rd but it wasn't a John A. Brown, except
the one at Shepherd Mall. I definitely saw a photo of a store that was
named Brown's in an Oklahoma City book that had photos from 1930 to the
present. Doug Loudenback and I talked about it at the last meeting. We
didn't come up with anything, but we discussed it and left with headaches.

I like your Salvador Dali avatar.

[Double Edge]

eh. I'll check in with my older siblings to see what they remember about it. I'm remembering shopping there about '63 ish. Wife didn't see that part of town until mid '70s.

There were many shops in that area during that period. Wife got her wedding
gown at Kathryn Lipes.

[Double Edge]

That was a favorite place for my granny to shop. More upscale than we were used to.

In order to rid yourself of those headaches try prunes...

Meeting is this Saturday, 1:30

[Prunepicker]

Will Tall Girl and Soonergirl26 be there?

Rumor has it that Soonergirl26 and Prunepicker are out of town this week.
Well, I must admit it. We are both out of town this week. However,
Soonergirl went WAY west and Prunepicker went WAY east. Believe her, er
me, it's the only way to go! In fact it's been very enjoyable.

I have no idea what Tall Girl is doing, other than baseball. Hey! She's
been out of town, too! Does anyone know where Southside Girl is? It's
startin' to git out of control. Hopefully she stayed near by. OKC!

Hey Frisky, why aren't you in this much trouble. I know Gen64 is, and it's
deep, but that's the norm.

I think I need a lawyer.

But not her!

Maybe you are thinking of Rothchild's?

[Double Edge]

Could have been. My memory fails me.

[Tall Girl]

Maybe you are thinking of Rothchild's?

I think Rothschilds was only Downtown, Uptown and Penn Square. Not 100% sure though.
