Seriously I haven't seen any on here yet and we are the one of the most unhealthy states. So add me if you want I'd love to have some Okie friends on here.

    Well I'm headed to NY state this summer. I'm taking a tattoo apprenticeship so I'll be misplaced as well. Also I lived in Lawton for about a month once for a construction job at Ft.Sill.

    Yeah I've never lived out of state so I'm worried I'll start getting homesick for sunsets and thunderstorms.

    How could you NOT get homesick and miss our amazing weather? Like the fact that I wore shorts and a tshirt on Sunday and am wearing a sweater and a jacket today.

    Oh I know before work I was rocking shorts and I went on lunch break last night and it was in the 40's LOL I literally had to stop and think about what season we were in. I forgot.

    Well I have a machine and I've done some work on myself and friends for practice but I'm not solid on how to work the machine or laying ink just yet. However when I get better I'd be more than happy to tat ya up!

    Howdy y'all!

    Let me go on and tell y'all a bit about myself.

    Me and my pa came out from the old oak in this here caravan in the summer of 1932

    Okies1_zps31adb7f2.jpg

    We made it through a harsh winter on the road but were determined to get our riches in the sunny state of California

    We stayed at many camps on the way there.

    We faced many hardships

    But finally we made it and found our riches!
