I got the chance to visit the booming metropolis of Hooker, OK this past weekend. It was a whole lot of fun to spend time with Kelsey and her parents and to see the place where Kelsey grew up - it is quite the place! We stayed at the house where her grandmother used to live, walked around town to see places like her high school and places where her relatives had lived (or still live), grilled out on Saturday evening with Kelsey’s great aunt (we actually went to Hooker for her great aunt’s 80th birthday) and her family. So, I got to meet all kinds of people and they wanted to know about my trip this summer. I had a great time talking with them that evening - it is so fun to share about all of the things that God did this summer. On Sunday, it was the birthday party for Kelsey’s great aunt, so I got a chance to meet even MORE of the extended family, which was also a great time! I told Kelsey that I hoped that there wasn’t a quiz, because there was no way that I was going to possibly remember all of the names of the people who were there. That evening, we had a great time eating with some of the Scoggins’ family friends, which was a great time to eat pizza and learn more about the crazy antics of growing up in a small town. I would definitely suggest going to Hooker just for the Rex Chicken with jalapeƱos from Mr. Burger. Okay, maybe a five hour drive (one way) for food is a bit excessive, but it was amazing!
