I love my Aunt Alma Adams very much and was glad to hear this storm that hammered her area and forced her to evacuate to a shelter from assisted living at her age is better now. This seems to be the storm that much gentler got to Kentucky. I used to say if I talked to Aunt Alma I knew the weather I would have the next day or so. I was lucky to have Aunt Alma who is a retired school teacher at Duncan in my life and she is a measurement of some of my happiest childhood memories when my Oklahoma relatives came to town. I was lucky enough to tour Tom Mix's museum with my Mom, the Cowboy Hall of Farm, Woolaroc at Bartlesville, Gene Autry as a town, Fort Sills, Anadarko, the prairie dog town near Fort Sills and near the Meers Oklahoma hamburger plate sized restaurant in an old ghost town. I got to tour Henrietta, Ardmore, Duncan, and Lawton on trips to Oklahoma and have nothing but good memories of Oklahoma.
It is good to have good memories with good people like my Aunt Alma who married my dad's brother Buford who worked for Continental Emsco and repaired oil field pumps in the field house. It was thanks to him I had a head start on understanding how to inspect a crude oil field and tank battery in my career in Kentucky Division of Water work. You never know what you learn in your childhood that may pay off later when you work.
