Most were indistinguishable knee-high, white, bearing spare inscriptions about those lying below.
Rhoda Hungary moved swiftly through Riverside Cemetery, home to more than 1,000 military graves, toward one marked simply “SS Soule Capt. 1 Colorado Cav.” ....

Discover Oklahoma: Winter is a 'reel' good time to go trout fishing

When one thinks of winter, getting outdoors does not necessarily sound enticing. Swimming and boating may not be at the top of your winter activities, but fishing certainly can be.

But for those trout anglers, there are seasonal trout areas that open on Nov. 1, and they are quite popular.
