<font face="Comic Sans MS"><b>Hi folks,<br>
<br>
It looks like we're in for another warm day in what looks like a line
of them coming at us, with some possible storms thrown in to make
things interesting. The weather report showed a row of temperatures in
the 90's coming up, so stake yourself out a cool spot somewhere.
You'll probably be needing it.<br>

Our Upward Bound kids started their summer camp here yesterday, so
we've got Upward Bound, Upward Bound Math and Science and Gear Up this
week. Boy, that's a lot of kids to feed (and keep track of)! <br>
<br>
Our little menagerie grew recently when some friends gave us a spare
male Muscovy duck they had that was having issues with his daddy over
who was going to be "top duck" on the farm. At our house he is
definitely "top duck", since right now he's the <u>only</u> duck we've
got. We may have to buy him a small swimming pool so he can dabble
around close to the house and not have to go all the way to the pond.
Then it grew even more when our little mama hen hatched out 11 babies
this past weekend. It's amazing to me how quickly you start to see
hawks flying around when you have baby chicks or ducks around peeping.
They must have really keen hearing to pick up on that sound from so
high up. Thank goodness we have our little ones and their mama in a
pen where nothing can bother them. <br>
<br>
If your kids are looking for something interesting to do this summer,
try taking them to the Summer Reading Program at the Latimer County
Public Library, 301 West Ada, Wilburton. The theme this summer is
"Catch the Reading Bug" and most of the programs are about bugs, which
are some interesting little critters. This Thurs. June 5 at 1:00,
Magician Russell Turner will be performing, and the kids will get to
meet Betty the Butterfly, and Willy the Book Worm. The program is free
and open to the public, and is a great way to expose your children to
the joys of reading. <br>
