Today's the day, get your $1.00 hotdogs at any Lawton, Fort Sill Sonic Drive-In. We loaded up the truck and headed to Sonic for lunch this afternoon and took full advantage of this limited-time offer. I hate to admit it, but after 3 hotdogs with tatter tots, I'm stuffed.

This year we're seeing more Fall colors in Lawton, Fort Sill than ever before. It's been a while since the leaves have been so vibrant and colorful. Some say it's due to all the rain and moisture we've seen this year throughout the Spring and late Summer. Whatever the reason, the trees are changing and if you're into Fall leaves you're in luck!
