Coming Home Again

This week's newsletter will be going out late Saturday night so NW Okie and this Pug writer, Duchess Rose, can take in NWOSU's Homecoming activities this weekend and get some photo shots for those of you who couldn't make it back home to northwest Oklahoma! See Y'all later this evening!

Meanwhile... This lap I'm settled onto belongs to my Bud (Clark). I'm sure glad NW Okie brought me home again to see my friend, Bud!

Last Sunday, NW Okie and myself (Duchess) loaded our covered-wagon (so to speak) and headed eastward along highway 160 out of Bayfield, Colorado -- making Dodge City, Kansas by nightfall. The next morning, we continued our journey eastward towards Spearville, Lindsey and Lewis, Kansas. We found some beautiful murals along the way in western Kansas. Especially, at a gas stop somewhere between Spearville and Lindsey, Kansas, along highway 50. It is great to see the small rural communities painting bits of history, murals on their businesses, buildings in remembrances of their pioneers.

When we arrived in Alva, Oklahoma, one of the first places we stopped was at Bud & Lovina Clark's homeplace so this Duchess could lay her eyes and paws on Bud Clark. We also made our way to Eva Welch's "Rustic Weaver's Coffee Shop" for a cup of coffee. Have you stopped by "Rustic Weaver's Coffee Shop" yet? Great coffee and atmosphere! Stop by and say, "Hello!"

We did manage to find a NEW mural on the main highway running east and west through Alva, Oklahoma. It is a quail hunting mural on the northeast corner of 5th & Oklahoma Blvd, where a dry cleaners used to be located. There is a Real Estate office there now. It is just across the street to West of the "Castle on the Hill" mural.
