Spring Break outside of Edmond


Well, we are back from our Spring Break in Newport, Ri. Here are the top TEN aspects about Edmond Oklahoma that I am bringing back with me:
1. Our road system is much easier to navigate than the Northeast
2. As noticed by my 11yr old son when driving home from the airport, "Mom, our roads are much wider, I feel like I can breathe here in Edmond."
3. Our homes are much MUCH MUCH more affordable and have some of the best amenities. Looking thru the Real Estate Guides in Mass, RI I would not switch my home for one of those at the same price. Thank goodness for steady Oklahoma!
4. Every place we went people were talking about the down economy, now I know things are down a bit, but we certainly are not feeling what they are feeling.
5. Our weather was much warmer while I was gone, it was 32-48degrees the whole time we were there, I had my winter coat and scarf the whole time.
6. They do have better seafood than us. Sorry, but thats ok, because I DO NOT eat seafood. Just my husband and kids. Go steak!!!
7. When people asked where we were from we proudly stated OKLAHOMA and most people stated they would love to go see it sometime! I told them I could sell them some good real estate :)
8. Our airport is nice, clean, and easy to manuever. Theres well....... Providence was comparable.
9. A typical lunch cost us $70 for four. That is a typical dinner here!
10. Oklahoma feels like home, but that is a great place to visit!!!
