Spur Walking Event
Dickens County

This sign is on the outskirts of town - not on the walk route.

We parked at the public library - which was closed - to start our walk.

Interesting hand pump.

Nice rock home.

Another Quanah Parker Arrow in a park with a large spur.

We detoured from the walk route to explore the park.

WPA constructed this bathhouse and pool. Pool is being repaired.

Carol and Ed exploring the park.

The park road goes by the Bulldog's football stadium which is carved back into the hill.

Nice horses but they wouldn't come over to be petted.

Abandoned rock building - if only it could talk.

We drove back to the stadium after we finished the walk to get a view from the top. I walked down the steps to get this picture. Although the stadium was built in 1937, I couldn't find any proof that the WPA had a hand in the building.
