THE AZALEAS ARE COMING
At Honor Heights Park, the home of Muskogee's annual Azalea Festival, the azaleas are looking pretty good despite an ice storm last week and tornado-carrying storms last night.

I walked the park and it looks much like our yard with limbs and branches down on the paths. It will take a crew a few days to clean it up.
Think they would come to our yard next? Me, either.
