I didn't know I was a fan until I visited Oklahoma; that sold me, especially meeting the people. It's very "down home."

Also, the folks out there might be interested in knowing the Will Rogers State Park is here in Pacific Palisades, CA and the Will Rogers Elementary School in Santa Monica!! He was very beloved here.

I just happen to have a photo of his ranch house living room in what is now the Park. It is adjacent to the polo grounds, some horse stables, and hiking trails that go up into the Santa Monica Mountains:

Lots of Okie's went on to settle in CA so I'm not surprised that Will was remembered so fondly there. He died prematurely in a plane crash in Alaska.

Love seeing rooms like Will Rogers ranch house living room. When I was looking for pictures of any and all things Will Rogers, there were so MANY places everywhere that were named after him! We listed just a few of those in Okla itself.

That is a lovely room, Dita! I also just saw those flowers...they were beautiful! I will be back in the morning.
