Out and About in the Panhanle

Drove from Spearman, TX to Borger, TX just the other day and found some interesting things to see. One never knows what will be around the next corner. The reason for going to Borger was to see our cousin at the craft show/flea market at the Borger Aluminum Dome and do some shopping. Interesting a building with history at this link, http://highlightsmemories.com/a-landmark-unique-structure-caused-domesized-headaches-in-its-early-days-p616-163.htm

Leaving Spearman on Texas 207 is this Historical Marker which I thought was interesting. Click on it and it will be larger and read about Lindbergh's landing near Spearman.




Another historical marker another 12 miles down the road is this one. We are always interested in the old cowmen who did the cattle drives from Texas to the railroads to the north.




Always between the two towns we look for antelope along the way. Sometimes we see them and sometimes we don't. These were the close to the road. Notice how dry everything is.

 


It was nice to see the buffalo across the road.




These horses were down the way a little bit. My favorite subjects.
