Feeling possessed to leave an indelible mark on Randolf, I planted a tree in our front yard today. A blue spruce - the Picea pungens - Colorado's conifer. I hope it takes to Oklahoma as well as I have.
Rural Oklahoma celebrated its 71st Diamondback Rattlesnake Roundup today, the world's original and oldest hunting event of its kind. 5,000 snakes were captured and caged in Okeene, Oklahoma - about 30mi from Enid - then transmuted to belts and novelty meat. The locals love it - vegetarians, not so much.
