I’ve been going to The Lift Coffee Bar for over five years. It’s a nice relaxing restaurant in Tahlequah, Okla. When you frequent a place a lot, you develop a nice rapport with the staff. That’s why I’m asking you to help a worker and mother of two who has been diagnosed with breast cancer.Continue reading “Please Help If You Can”

Et Tu, McDonald’s? Et Tu?
The McDonald’s in Tahlequah, Okla. has its flags at half-staff. Lindsey Graham passed away over the weekend and Trump ordered flags flown at half-staff which I’ve seen at government buildings and memorial parks but McDonald’s?

Newborn Foal At My Neighbor’s
My neighbors who live across the road from my house have their own ranch with cattle and horses. Recently they had a new foal born. They’re also beef suppliers if you’re in the area and looking for some good meat. Check out Oklahoma Beef Market or Jarvis Ranch.
