Duchess of Weaselskin

Hope you all are having a safe Labor Day weekend! Southwest Colorado Rockies has been cool and wet this last week. Our "sweet 100 tomatoes" have really started ripening. They are those little, round tomatoes with a slight sweet taste that you can just plop into your mouth. From garden to kitchen a few do not make it back to the kitchen. Especially if they are ripe for eating!

Major Andrew Drumm

This feature appeared in our 2001 November issue of Vol. III, that Bonnie Haas wrote up and sent to the "OkieLegacy."

by Bonnie Haas -- "I was interested in the bit about Major Andrew Drumm since my friend Dr. Joyce Bender and I have researched his contribution to the development of Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri.
