Ramblings & Rumblings of NW Okie

I love the Fall/Winter weather! Especially in the SW Rockies of Colorado! For the past week, the mountains have been brightening up the mountainsides in the San Juan mountains with its hues of golden aspens with the help of the reddish hues of the scrub oaks that are coming back and mingled with the Ponderosa and other pines that survived the 2002 San Juan forest fire that sweeped through the Lemon and Vallecito Reservoir.

On a genealogy rambling nature, does anyone remember Grace Ward Smith, Tracy (Smith) Preston's grandmother? If so, Tracy would love to hear from you. Tracy says that her grandmother once ran for mayor of Alva, Oklahoma and lost by only 6 votes. If you have pictures or stories or documents, Tracy would love to hear from you. You can contact her at the following EMAIL: TracyAmazon@hotmail.com.

While we were composing this week's OkieLegacy newsletter, at about 1 p.m. MDT, temperature at 38F, to began snowing here in the San Juan mountains North of Vallecito Lake. No accumulations, though! AND . . . What about those tornadoes that rumbled through NE Texas yesterday, Sunday, 24 October 2010. Hope everyone stayed out of their path and arrived home safely yesterday evening.

Roy in Perry, Oklahoma tells us, "This week my rain gauges showed an inch of rain for Perry. I heard that nearby Enid had seven inches in just a 24 hour period." Is that so, Enid, Oklahoma?

A day before our oldest son's 40th birthday we send this HAPPY BIRTHDAY (Tuesday, Oct. 26th) to Michael!

We leave you with this message from Mark Twain to contemplate and figure out, "History doesn't repeat itself, but it does rhyme."

Good Day & Good Luck!   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
