| Pawhuska, Jewel of the Osage, continues its renaissance. | ||
 |
<<New businesses continue to open up. One recent addition is the Frontier Hotel, located in the historic Triangle Building.>> |
 |
| Trish's niece Amy is best buds with the PW so she got us (Amy, Trish and her mother (Allene), and me) reservations at the Boarding House for Allene's birthday. | ||
 |
<<I'm so used to seeing it derelict with all its windows broken or missing that it looks kind of strange all gussied up!
Allene on her 90th birthday.>> |
 |
 |
<<Take a look at the cake, custom made by Amy. This picture does not do the room justice. Perhaps the fanciest place I've every stayed. Some say it looks more like a bordello than a boarding house!.>> |
 |
| Trish has been designated as the official "Leader of Hikes" to the John Joseph Mathew's cabin. [Discussed in last year's Christmas pages.] | ||
 |
<<Trish discussing the Pump House Murals. Painted by Mathews himself, each one tells a story. (He must have used really good paint -- 50+ years old and no cracking, peeling, or fading!)>> |
 |
 |
<<Always discussed, "What is this rock structure?" Perhaps a sundial pedestal?
Trish and Lucy leading the docent contingent in the July 4th parade.>> |
 |
 |
<<Ditto.
Taken on our deck. The (hopefully) endless Cycle of Life.>> |
 |
| More pix from around the house. | ||
 |
<<Chores are endless -- who ever gets to really retire?
Who cares?>> |
 |
 |
<<A particularly intense cluster of Morning Glories growing by the garage.
And who can resist looking at Naked Ladies?>> |
 |
| The book, Killers of the Flower Moon, by David Grann, is a new version of an old tragedy that occurred in Osage County in the 1920's. This book has gained national attention. Trish had the opportunity to hear David Grann speak to a packed auditorium in Tahlequah, OK and also met him in Pawhuska at a book signing. Word is out that there will be a movie made of the book, with emphasis on the birth of the FBI. | ||
 |
|
 |
| Shit happens and it's spreading. I'm sure this is a plot by the 1% to get us to all eat shit and enjoy it! | ||
 |
<<'Nuff said.>> |
 |
 |
<<Ditto.
Oh America! -- how could you? It's available as a T-shirt.>> |
