LibertyFest Car Show
Went to the LibertyFest car show this morning on the campus of UCO. It was hot and so were the cars! One of the best shows I’ve seen. Something from every decade from 1900! I love the cars from the 50’s and 60’s. Back when the designers still ruled! Great car stories too. Here are a few of my favorite detail photos. Enjoy the full gallery here.

Ashley McKee
Ashley McKee, The Oklahoman’s 2009 photo summer intern started this week. Ashley comes to us from The University of Montana in Missoula. Ashley went to her first assignment Friday, the reopening of the Rock Cafe in Stroud after its destructive fire last year. Here are a couple of her photos. Some were published on Saturday May 30 and more will run with the Food Dude’s column in the Life section this week. Look for more from Ashley as we get her up to speed and she finds some projects to work on.

Another Hot Oklahoma Night
If you go to the Oklahoma rock’n'roll exhibit at the Oklahoma History Center be sure to take your camera! Besides lots of cool exhibits there is a Rock Star Photo-Op where you can pose with a guitar, bass, drums or microphone and fulfill your dreams!
