The Oklahoma City Canal

This is the canal that runs through Bricktown, with the ballpark in the background. It's the one feature that I really don't understand - a four-block long man-made canal that you can ride "water taxis" on.

Dean and I found ourselves walking around a bit and enjoying a cigar when it became clear that we weren't going to be able to find a place to smoke one that wasn't charging a $5 cover. Apparently Friday is Live Band night in Bricktown.

I wouldn't have minded paying it if I wanted to hear a band, but we just wanted to talk and enjoy a cigar.
