Day 3 cont. & Day 4 Paoli Oklahoma for 2 Days.

We made it to Paoli at about 5:00PMin the afternoon. Dan took us all out to dinner to a pizza place that made Dora and I really good vegan pizza.







After dinner Dan drove us out to see what is left of the family farm.

Sunset from the Cannon Farm in Paoli OK. About 100 acres of what used to be over 500 acres.



The next day which was Thursday June 26th we checked out a historical site in the neighboring town. Pauls Valley


This train is part of the display at the restored train station in downtown Pauls Valley.




I couldn't resist taking this workers picture. He just somehow looked tike a statue driving the mower around.

This is the inside of the train station where they had different exhibit of life in Pauls Valley 150 years ago.

We went to Lunch at Mimi's Restaurant.






We also went to the Toy and Action Figure Museum in downtown Pauls Valley





They had quite a collation of action figures as you can see.









Then we went to the Chickasaw Nation Cultural Center. That was a truly amazing place. We only had  a couple of hours there. I could have easily spent all day or maybe to. There was zoo much to see.


A typical Chicksaw village from 150 years ago.
