Beth - For the Tulsa State Fair - The check-in is Friday afternoon and evening. They judge all day Saturday and, if need be, into Sunday morning, do their awards deal, and cage-out is around 2:00 Sunday afternoon. Between TJ and Pa-Pa, and Na-Na "trying" to say "that's enough"...... sent our...

Mornin' Okies ! Have been lurking as I can and trying to keep up with the news. Has been a busy summer here, but alas, seems the "hurrier" we go...the "behinder" we get. Pa-Pa (Bill) has been through a tough time with trapped kidney stones. The "blasting" process was not that bad, but the...

P&B - I hurt for you!!! That's the only concern I have about my Hollyhock seeds that Wayne is saving....... Gees, 100+ years ago...back when I was a kid....Daddy planted some of Granny's seeds and grew a beautiful wall of them. Yup, their stings are rough! So, am going to plant the seeds...

Hey Kronk - We need for you to come out of your cave long enough to come over here and help identify all the "new" critters that we're finding. I had posted earlier about the four different colors of coi fish that suddenly appeared down in the creek behind the house. Then, we found the Eastern...

Lynn - Had Pa-Pa look at your roo. Yup, back in the day, he was all into the "game" birds....... He says that is a "beautiful Claret rooster". He says they come in that coloring, spangled, and white. Good lookin' bird. Everyone, take care in this heat. Is gonna be rough for a few more days...

WOW, all of you in central Oklahoma, be sooooo careful in all that water !!!! Those rainfall totals are unbelievable. They have had a lot of rain in Tulsa and several roads closed, but not like the totals from Oklahoma City. Is cloudy and grey here, but no rain yet. Will be a good day to...

TJ's Na-Na : Kenny Kvittum (Langshanman) is having auctions the second Saturday of each month at Chouteau. We haven't been to one yet, but will be soon. We have GOT TO bring this bird situation back under control. I don't know the exact address, but it's held in the previous auction...

Grace - Have been meaning to ask you.... How's the new job going? Hope it's something that you enjoy and are in with some good folks. Wayne and I have been talking about some of his gorgeous hollyhocks. TJ was curious about them and Pa-Pa told him a little story about his grandma's hollyhock...

Donna - So sorry that you're having to look at this option for the house. I'd try making some calls to the "house moving" people in your yellow pages and see if any of them would be interested. Or possibly call a salvage building materials place and see if/when they might want to handle...

I totally agree !!! My Dad is buried on the west side of the big pavilion at Floral Haven at Broken Arrow that they show each year up here in NE OK. They have a major program, the donated casket flags from families fly up and down each walkway throughout, and flags at each marker. I haven't...

Hope everyone is having a nice holiday weekend. We're doing absolutely nuthin' and lovin' it !!! I even fixed a big turkey yesterday and don't even plan to go in the kitchen today.....LOL Safe travel wishes to all that are out and about. I'm a chicken when it comes to holiday traffic. It has...

Quote: HOW COOL !!!!! Pulled up the picture and that's what it is/was..... POO, wish they hadn't killed it. Says Eastern Glass Lizard....are they common around here. Hope Teach doesn't even catch wind of this. I know he'd want one for his class. Maybe we can find another one. Thanks...

We're having the snakes and the coons this year like never before. Wish Teach wasn't out of pocket. TJ caught a little guy the other day and Bill said he had never seen one like it before. Then, yesterday...TJ caught the mom snake going into the nest, thankfully in the snake catching...

TJ took 12 birds. And, thanks to Madison and Modernman's boy, all of them managed to hit the table. Yes, those were the biggest single classes I think I've ever seen. And, good quality, too.........Both kids and birds ! There was a little confusion at the table right at the start of the first...

Quote: That brings back some laughter here. We had a turkey hen that had fought us like a wildcat for a week when we'd try to see what she was sitting on....... Bill finally pulled her off the nest... Don't know where she got hold of it, but she was sitting on a burned out light...

Talked to Tony Downing and he said there was no damage at the fairgrounds and everything is a go for the show Saturday. Rabbits - Check in at 8:00 and show at 9:00 Chickens - Check in at 11:00 and show at 12:00. Good Luck to all our young BYC'ers that will be there ! Have a good one !

Glad everyone seems to be OK after this crazy weather. No damage here, just torrential rain. We got just over 3 1/2" in about 6 hours. Bill has a call in to Tony Downing to be sure there wasn't any damage at Eufaula that would affect the show Saturday. Any news, I'll holler. Have a good one !
