Jody & April

So, we got a new camera last month and I have not been able to blog b/c I couldn't find the cord to get all the photos off our camera to put on our blog, but today I finally found it in the most likely place in the camera box! Duh- So anyways were back.

Last month over 4th of July I went to visit my Mom for the day while Jody was working in Clinton and I feel like I went back into time and relived my grandparents and parents era. We visited The Route 66 Museum in Elk City. Which had 4 different buildings. We took lots of pictures too!

Old Town Museum Complex (which recreated pioneer life in early Elk City) This is the life-
The permanent wave machine.
Watch as steam rises from her head, which is full of spacers, rods, etc, and after, it's full of curls.

Operator Switchboard

How about going here for a Dr. Apt???

An Old School House

Checks from 1917

National Transportation Museum (like the Route 66 Museum, but a little more hands-on)

This building had theater which plays a film that covers the entire history of Rout66.

Everything Popeye.

Farm and Ranch Museum (located in this large barn w/ no air conditioning!)

I like these licenses plates in the shape of OK!!!

The Blacksmith Museum (which actually still operates).

All the Museums contained compelling exhibits and gave a good overview of the famous highway with antiques, cars, murals, and interesting information.
