Murals In Anadarko, OK

"It's been a soggy, foggy day here in Southern Oklahoma! The leaves are beginning to fall from the pecan trees in my yard and I can see the pecans. Looks like a bumper crop!

I am attaching murals of downtown Anadarko, Ok. I made a trip there last summer to visit my folks grave site and as always, I "drag" both Main streets. And there they were on the end of West Main and Hwy 281 (This was one long painting. It was so long I had to take several photos to get it all.)

Someone done a beautiful job capturing how the old town looked. In the first photo, the building on the left is the old courthouse. It was replaced by a new one back in 1951 52?

I asked at a local convenience store who had done the painting of the murals and was told that the Arts class Teacher and her students had done it a few years back. The lady didn't know when they were painted.

There is another mural as you leave town heading North on Hwy 281 toward Gracemont. I thought I had photos of it as well but unable to find them. Thanks for letting me share my stuff!" -- Kenneth
