Here in Oklahoma, it’s like Mother Nature decided to throw a party and invited all the flowers, trees, and critters as guests. With a delightful palette of greens breaking through the sleepy earth, it’s the time of year when the town sheds its winter coat for vibrant blossoms and a warm, laid-back vibe.
From the first chirp at the break of dawn to the gentle hum of the river at dusk, there’s a sense of renewal in the air. So, toss off that heavy jacket, lace up your walking shoes, and let’s breathe in the fresh air, Gore-style!
