I can remember those Saginaw elevators, too. Lived in Foat Wuth back in the early fifties, but went back and forth to Oklahoma a lot on Hwy 81.
After Decatur, the next thing you looked for were those elevators. And that is all there was...
Abso-bloomin'-lutely the *only* thing along that stretch, with Boss Hawg hidin' behind the filling station.
LOL, remember the "Eighter from Decatur" signs at both ends of town? That was after Bowie and Fruitland - I've even written about those on FR - about Wagonseller's and all the produce stands.
Hwy 81 - think how many business execs in this world have had to make that same trek in someone's limo or nice car, from the evil Halliburton offices in Duncan to DFW (those that didn't fly private).
