the henryetta inn

[jk the sooner fan]

wow, this hotel.....and for that matter, the town.........has really changed over the years, and not for the better (sorry tulsaoilerfan)

the entire family checked into the hotel sunday afternoon - the same place we all stayed 30 years ago when my grandfather died......my dad goes back frequently for high school reunion gatherings and such

what a dump the place is, but apparently they have a new owner that is going to put 1 million in renovations - much needed.

our family took over the dining room sunday nite for dinner - the staff of "one" was overwhelmed - poor girl

my aunt wanted a glass of berringers wine.....the waitress said "we dont have that kind"......."well, what kind do you have?" "i dont know, let me go read the box"

doh....

[colleyvillesooner]

heh.

Again sorry for your loss JK.

[oumartin]

well i am in room 216. have been for three damn weeks

[oumartin]

and you forgot. Its henryetta inn and dome!

[jk the sooner fan]

and you forgot. Its henryetta inn and dome!

yeah a dome normally isnt a square flat roof

i wouldnt be surprised if you saw us down under the dome today, or last nite

[oumartin]

I only leave the room when I go to work. I did however spend about 15 minutes in the dome area today.

[jk the sooner fan]

we left the "dome" by 2:20 pm

[oumartin]

probably your loud mouths that woke me up.

[jk the sooner fan]

probably was!

[oumartin]

were you downstairs using the pop can to prop open your door?

[jk the sooner fan]

no.....i was in 106, we had 6 rooms all on the first floor on the inside of the dome.....we had a group of folks playing chicken feet down by the pool.....and a couple of the little kids swimming, but we werent that noisy......at least i didnt think so

[soonerboomer93]

you should neg him for waking you up




:D

[oumartin]

well i am sure i seen some of your family..... anyhow, you are right. that place is a dump and the mirrors on the closet are a nice touch.

[GottaHavePride]

Dude, you could just walk over to martin's room and say hi.

[soonerboomer93]

Dude, you could just walk over to martin's room and say hi.

This is ironic in many ways

[Okla-homey]

You should move over to the Morris Hilton or the Okmulgee Sheraton

[Sooner Born Sooner Bred]

Eat a meal at The Hungry Traveler. YWIA.

[Jerk]

or "The Pig-Out Palace"

I read somewhere that public dancing is illegal in Henryetta.

[jk the sooner fan]

we stopped in shawnee on the way back yesterday and ate at Van's Pig stand

so many things wrong with the room we were in......hair on the pillow case.....umm, ok....you were taking your life into your own hands if you walked barefoot on the carpet

the shower...nuff said

sunday nite when we all walked into the dining room, the gal that came out of the kitchen was wearing a tshirt with the sleeves cut off........bare underarms in the kitchen always make me smile...

[Okla-homey]

the gal that came out of the kitchen was wearing a tshirt with the sleeves cut off........bare underarms in the kitchen always make me smile...

[Flagstaffsooner]

Sounds like a La Quinta.

[jk the sooner fan]

The only John Denver song I ever liked.

[BlondeSoonerGirl]

D'OH!

[SteelPanz]

i remember back when that was a Holidome (holiday inn thingy). used to stay there on my way to little rock. ugh.

[jk the sooner fan]

yeah it was a holiday inn....not sure when holiday inn bailed on it

apparently they have a new owner thats going to renovate it.....the town itself has really gone downhill imo....which is sad, its my family's hometown.....the junkyard on the west end of town is a great way to greet travelers....worst eyesore ever

[stoops the eternal pimp]

mmm pig out palace..or go to mcdonalds to get your picture taken with troy aikman

[Sooner_Bob]

was she wearing hair net(s)?


We never, ever call 'em hair nets. It's hair restraint. Some guys will wear a hair restraint, but never ever wear a hair net.

:D

[oumartin]

dude, the sheets are dingy and yes the floors are very dirty and the bathrooms. i always carry my own sheets, pillow, and blankets.

I am checking my butt out in just a bit

[stoops the eternal pimp]

when i was working for locke, i had to deliver a commercial water heater to that hole. I called to see if i was going to have help unloading and they said "lord yes". i go to unload the thing and they send out this guy that had to be about 85 or 90 and was so thin he was transparent. and i kept picturing him being the "mister, mister" lady from happy gilmore with the heater laying on top of him. anyway thankfully i still have a back

[tulsaoilerfan]

No offense JK, after living here my whole life, i have pretty much accepted that this town is nothing special; the only good thing to happen in the last 20years or so is the town finally figured out that they needed to put some money into education and sports, so we have a new middle school and early childhood center, plus a new basketball arena on the way and 2 indoor hitting facilities; at least my kid has a better school life than i ever had. Still, it's my home and i like the small town life for the most part.

[jk the sooner fan]

oh for small town living, which there's much to be said for, its a great town

i was just shocked at the appearance - or saddened....my dad grew up there.....we went by the old family house on 5th street

[tulsaoilerfan]

Come back around 2009 Jon and we will probably have the true sign of small town progress; a Supercenter!!:D

[jk the sooner fan]

dude, that wal-mart is the SMALLEST one i've ever seen

[FrenchFry]

I took a **** at the McDonald's there this week.

[tulsaoilerfan]

I took a **** at the McDonald's there this week.
Which should be the only thing anyone should EVAR do at a McDonald's. :D
