As we were about to embark on the Talimena Scenic Drive, we stopped in Hartshorne, OK to meet up with Jonathan (he had to work that morning so he drove separately). As we drove through the downtown area I noticed a building that had it’s front structure, minus the windows, and a collapsed ceiling. I thought it looked really cool so we took a few minutes to wander over there and stretch our legs.
It seemed like a cool place for some portraits – even Trae caught on before I had a chance.
Andy took a series of cute photos of us here. I’m not going to share them all because I think there may be another holiday card contender in there, and I’ve already share one in this post! :)
Shandy’s turn!
In Googling Hartshorne I found out that the official Chamber of Commerce website is a Facebook page, and that Hall of Fame baseball player Warren Spahn was a resident (whether alive or not, I’m not sure. He’s buried there) – which also led me to learn that the statue outside the Right Field entrance of the OKC Redhawks Baseball field is of Spahn. Huh!
So much cool photography potential…
One last wander over to a giant mural of Will Rogers and…some other stuff.
There is something so mysterious about small towns. Especially ones of this size (Wikipedia says the population in 2010 was just over 2,000 people).
