As the drag of making ends meet during the day to day strife of modern living begins to get to us all, more and more people are found to be jacking in their secondary teaching jobs or cashier clerk positions and hitting the open road in search of a greater meaning to their mundane life. One of the most inviting routes to take is of course the infamous Route 66 which takes you past the fabulous town of Tulsa in Oklahoma. Now whenever I here of the name Tulsa now, I can’t help but think of Chandler Bing from friends who has to relocate there for work, much to his dismay. However Tulsa (affectionately called T –Town by some) has much to offer the passer by and is well worth a stop off by those doing the Route 66. Tulsa is a charming old west American town with modern aspects weaved in carefully, as to not risk losing its southern charm. One of the most fascinating aspects of the town is the strong art deco influence due to its 1920’s boom of rich oil tycoons with money to spend on architecture. Whilst visiting the town of Tulsa it is well worth your while taking a trip to the Gilcrease Museum which houses one of the largest collections in the world of native and west American artifacts and art. Furthermore, why not have a picture taken with each of the ‘penguins on parade'the dozen six foot penguins sculptures that can be found throughout the city, and finding them all also creates the perfect way to explore the city.
