I am blessed to have a small area of unused farm land behind my house, as well as a drainage ditch that has been dammed up by beavers. This results in all kinds of “critters” coming by. This past week, we had this Tri-colored Heron (I think that is what it is.) as a visitor. He caught fish in my “drainage ditch!”
Waiting?
Moving up to the drainage ditch - creek.
Looking for fish.
I know one is in here somewhere!
Got one!
Tasty!

Photos of the damage from the ice storm that hit Oklahoma on December 3, 2007.

These photos were taken in Tulsa during the clean-up phase which is still happening in March. I heard on the news that they have picked up enough tree debris to fill up the new BOK Arena 2-1/2 times!

If you enjoy traveling in Oklahoma, you might be interested in my resource, Oklahoma Scrapbook. The Oklahoma Scrapbook is a 290-page trip planner, learning tool, and memory book, created for families to use before, during, and after exploring the state of Oklahoma.
It offers a list of over 150 travel destinations located in the state of Oklahoma. Each entry includes a brief description of the destination, as well as its hours of operation, admission charges, address and/or directions, and contact information. Each destination is listed by geographic area (Green Country, Frontier Country, etc.) as well as alphabetically and by city/town.
In addition, there are recommended topics to discuss, books to read, and activities to do that are related to each destination. For instance, when visiting the 45th Infantry Division Museum, the topics suggested are World War II, Korean War, Germany, and Hitler. A list of books and activities for follow that relate specifically to these topics.
Although it was created for families, my customers have included adults without children as well as educators. For more information or to order, go to my Web page: Oklahoma Scrapbook by Cindy Downes.
