James Garner

James Garner passed away last night. To me, James was like an uncle you know you had but never got to see much. I have never met him, but I think people here felt a connection with him. Who wouldn’t want to claim him as their own, he seemed like an awesome guy. He was born here in Norman, OK, Part of Main Street is named James Garner Corridor. There is a great statue of him, from the Rockford Files days, that stands near the RR tracks.
He will be missed and remembered by all as one cool dude!

Best weather ever

We have had a cold front that has moved into Oklahoma. The temps are 20-25 degrees cooler the normal. It will be warming up tomorrow to 85 degrees! Most lovely!

Perfect imperfections

Lots and lots of tomatoes…I have 5 pints in the freezer already. These will be ripe in a day or so…I have to pick them a bit early so the squirrels and birds don’t get them. So far I have only lost two.

Tomato time

It is tomato time. I am picking between 6-12 tomatoes a day. I’ve given away some already. They are really good this year. We had a wet spring so they really grew well. I am hoping to put more tomato plants in later this month for a fall harvest. I grew tomatoes later in the season last year and were harvesting tomatoes in September…What a real treat. It’s time to start freezing some of them now… Yum!
