Just a thought

Which way? Over here, turn here, no...........Over there, yea that's it....Meers. I'm sorry, I blinked back there and almost drove right past the place. Where? Oh, I didn't say? My bad. The World Famous Meers' Store and Restaurant in Meers, OK. This quaint little mining town in the Wichita Mountains is home to one of the finest eating places in southwest Oklahoma. Founded during the gold rush of 1901 the place is one hundred and five years old. What? You have never heard of the Wichita gold rush? Well that is because they never did find it!! There were a few veins of ore found, but they went broke trying to get it. Spent more than they collected (sounds like they should have listened to Eli Ramsey.....Dave's great-great granddad....."Don't charge that pick at the store, pay cache and be debt free!!") I suppose. Anyway it is a great place to eat and learn. It is worth the drive, if you can find it.

S-later,
Ricky.
