TROUT FISHING IN OKLAHOMA? YES!

I didn't know it until we moved here, but there is Trout Fishing in Oklahoma, and better yet, just down the road from us. The lake at Roman Nose State Park, just a mile down the road, is spring fed and VERY COLD, and is stocked with Trout in February. The local Chamber of Commerce hosts a "Trout Derby" every year--this year it is scheduled for March 6-9, 2009. There are pretty good prizes in addition to the fun of fishing. If you're interested in attending, look at the http://www.watonga.com/ website for details, entry fee, list of prizes, etc., or give me or Andy a call. IF YOU'D LIKE TO COME FISH AND STAY WITH US (Free of course), LET US KNOW ASAP. We have two bedrooms available. And as always, we'd love to see friends.


This past weekend Andy and I went to "the city"--OKC-- and bought a bedroom set for the Texas room. It won't be delivered until we get the carpet in, which we just ordered. That should be in about two weeks. In the meantime, Andy is starting to texture the walls in the bedroom in readiness for paint . . . everything is one step at a time.

We've had cold weather (20's in the morning, warming up to high 40's and one day in the 50's)but no more ice or snow. In fact, it is unseasonably dry and there is a burn ban on around the state. The farmers really need some rain; there is a chance of rain in the forecast for this coming weekend.
