Have you heard of the Rock Cafe in Stroud? This iconic eatery has been around since 1939 and has become a popular destination for Route 66 travelers. Despite facing a fire in 2008, the restaurant has maintained its historic charm with its original rock walls, foundation, and grill from WWII. The menu features unique items like the alligator burger, Reuben sandwich, and German jager schnitzel that keep customers returning for more. It's no wonder that the Rock Cafe has served many famous faces, including Robert Plant, Matt Groening, and Bryant Gumbel. The cafe was owned by Dawn Welch in 1993 and inspired a character in the animated film "Cars." If you're looking for some rural Oklahoma hospitality and a taste of history, the Rock Cafe is worth a visit.

Explore the Tulsa Botanic Garden and be blown away by the natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere.

Stroll through the gardens and enjoy the stunning displays of trees, shrubs, perennials, and bulbs. With over 200,000 bulbs in bloom, the spring display of daffodils, orchids, and tulips is not to be missed. And if you’re looking for something extra unique, check out one of the many special events held throughout the year. One of the highlights of my visit was the art in the Garden. The handcrafted, one-of-a-kind objects seamlessly merge design and functionality, adding to the Garden’s rich tapestry of stories, tastes, and sounds. Overall, the Tulsa Botanic Garden is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to connect with nature and escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
