Traveling Rhubarb
The rhubarb has moved from the garden to the hedgerow! I cannot blame it, considering the state of the garden spot. A little progress was made last weekend, between rains, so there is hope for garden re-invention.

Baby Frog Season
The little frogs are climbing out of the water and enjoying the sun. Others are still at the swimming stage.

Kansas Capital Visit
We fit in a visit to the state capital building. My Mother wasn't sure she had been inside before.

The foundation and basement...

Wichita Art Museum - Prairielike
Along with the paintings and other art, this Prairie installation at the Wichita Art Museum was more of an audio experience. It has speakers at the tops of those vertical wires. They emit different clicks and sounds at different intervals. The wires also move a little due to small motors at their base.
Overall, it sounds like the insects, rain and grasses moving in the breeze on the prairie!
Liza Lou's Gather (one million). Made with 9 million beads on 1 million wires, arranges in mini wheat shocks.

Coffee Choices in Har-Ber Village
In between rain showers, my mother, brother and I visited Har-Ber Village in Grove, OK.
In the mid 1800 - early 1900, there were a lot of coffee choices!
It's a pretty spot on Grand Lake with lots to see and gardens to wander.

Side Trip to Arkansas
I took a break from my OK trip to have lunch with a friend in Bentonville, AR. Afterward, I stopped at the square and visited the Walmart Museum at the first Walton's.

Alternative Skies
The blue skies in NE Oklahoma are a treat but the clouds bring a nice alternative too

Fenceline Rose
It's time for the rose that grows along our fence line. They are a lovely reminder of the sweet couple who lived in this area long before our house was here.
