Are you in the Big M? You must be. I used to have cousins of cousins there, but probably not anymore. Somebody famous was born there, but I can't think of who it was. Must have been YOU.
Is the train locomotive in your downtown park or Duncan's? I'm getting them mixed up in my mind's eye.
Don't plan to go to Ardmore--B&B's is evidently gone. Someone told me that 2-3 years ago (the owners retired) and now I can't find a listing online for them. Sorry! It's still a very pretty trip.
And there's Turner Falls and the Chickasaw Natl Recreation Area--the walk around Travertine Creek used to be very nice. Or you can go the opposite direction to Quartz Mtn near Altus--that's a pretty area, too.
Yep, I'm located in the Big M! I'm not sure who famous was born here but I'm sure there must be someone out there who was. (twasn't me though! I was born in Dallas of all places!)
The locomotive is located in Duncan. We have the chapel in our park along with the hideout they've uncovered where they think the M brothers hid while being under attack. About once a month we have one of the tourist buses come to town to shop at the antique malls and enjoy a reenactment of the M bros. shoot out.
I've been to the Wichita's several times and have also explored some of the area around Pauls Valley. In the spring I plan on going back over to the Pauls Valley area because it's so pretty over there and I haven't explored all of it.
No B&B's then but there's always the onion burger to try! The one thing I've tried and haven't really liked that much are Indian Tacos. Did the Indians really have lettuce and tomato or even pita bread for that matter? The first time someone mentioned Indian Tacos I was all excited thinking I was going to get to taste some true native american cuisine. Oh well!!!
