Our actual next stop was at Antler Art of the Plains which is the name used by artist Larry Glaze and his son, Mark. After retiring from a previous occupation, Larry started creating artwork from shed antlers and other natural materials. He was gracious enough to give us an extended personal tour of his facilities and explainations of his techniques and of the many works that he is in the process of creating. It includes one going to President Bush. | Ok, you saw Suzanne as she was getting ready to head out. Now, after the drive out take a look at the grin on her face! That's one of those grins that takes about three days to go back to normal. This was probably the high point of the trip for her. By the look on her face, I also think Rachel now wants one of these when she gets her driver's license. | Since we wouldn't all fit in the Austin Healy, Jim and Stephen took this 1960 Jaguar. The Clugstons and Shewmakes were relegated to a modern SUV so I didn't take a picture of it. | Here Frank is giving Suzanne a little coaching on operating an old style English gearbox. Yes, Jesse is loving it! Note: Frank quickly identified the cause of the belt squeal and eliminated it, but we took the cars anyway! |
We then left Red Oak and went into Carthage where we parked the coaches. Our next stop had limited parking space so the plan was for everyone to pile into Jim's coach and just use it. When he fired it up he heard a belt squeal a little, so he quickly changed plans and fired up a couple of his cars for us to use to get to the next stop. This 1961 Austin Healy was one of those cars! Now do you think Suzanne is going to enjoy driving this car. I also think Rachel really was going to enjoy the ride as well. Frank was there as well to provide Crew Chief duties as needed. Jesse had a big grin as well. | Here is the garage where the various rolling stock is maintained. | This is an original Carthage newspaper that hangs in the General Store. | Here is the sign that greets visitors when they arrive. The Carthage city trolly in the earlier picture has been converted to the dining area for the attached restaurant and bar. |
You can google the marshall's name and learn more of the story. | This is a newspaper article about Marshall Hooker. | Lynn Clugston was admiring the lighting fixture. | Ken and Lynn Clugston joined us this day and Ken is checking out the bar. |
