Turn Around


This is the view from the backside of that shot from the last post. Of course, I walked across to the other side of the road to avoid taking a picture of the highway. That hill in the background is Soldiers Mound. The original name of the place was Anderson's Fort. In the late 1800's, Colonel Anderson commanded a garrison of Buffalo Soldiers on Soldiers Mound. The last of the Great Warrior Chieftains, Quanah Parker, still roamed the Plains and the cemetery here has a memorial in the area of the graves of the Buffalo Soldiers who died in this campaign.

  2. It isn't hard to look at this view and picture those frontier days, and yes Pixie, I have always liked it.

    Thanks Mimi. I appreciate that.

    Hi, I'm Bill. I lived on a farm in Highway Community from 1944 to 1948 and have always considered Spur my hometown although I have lived many places since. I am writing about my life experiences and I have several chapters about Spur, Espuela, and our life and times there. Good work with your blog. I found it while checking for information on Soldier's Mound. Cheers, Bill

    P.S. We leased a farm in the Red Mud Shinnery one year -- farming wasn't very good. Our farm was the closest one to Red Mud from Spot Hill.

    That brings me on to the point of all this. Who among the many United strikers of the past have been the best? For what they are worth, here are my thoughts on the top 5 strikers in the years prior to Alex Ferguson's reign at Manchester Utd. I have a strong suspicion that if you happen to be reading this your views may not align with mine, but I can live with that. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]arsenal football[/url] In anticipation of the 2002 Commonwealth Games, which Manchester hosted, several first class sporting facilities were constructed and this further boosted sports development in the city. These venues include the Manchester Velodrome, the City of Manchester Stadium, the National Squash Centre and the Manchester Aquatics Centre. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]dimitar berbatov[/url] Back in the Newton Heath era, the kits were made up of yellow and green stitched sections (1878 - 1892), and looked a bit like a jockey's silks. Some additional colour schemes were also employed such as a red and white shirt (1892-1894) paired with blue shorts. This all changed in 1902 when the club changed its name to Manchester United, the club radically altered the kit colours to red shirts, white shorts and black socks. This colour palette has been the foundation of the home strip ever since. The away strip is white jerseys, black shorts and white socks however different looks to this strip have existed. The most notorious of these was the all-grey strip employed in the 1995-1996 campaign. The club did not win a single game when sporting the grey shirts. The team were vociferous in their claims that the drab colour meant they had difficulty seeing their team-mates, hence passes were being sprayed all over the pitch! Another variation was the all-black kit used in 1994 and 2003. There is also a "Third Strip". This shirt which is not often used, is an homage to the kit worn when the club won the 1968 European Cup. The team has occasionally used the strips employed for training sessions in actual matches although this has been a rare occurence.

    French attempts finally brought results at minute 75 when Pjanic took a pass from Lisandro in the area; with a volley, he then passed Casillas to score Lyon’s first goal in the game. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]real madrid fotos[/url] At the end of this match, Kaká stated his satisfaction with scoring for Real again in a tough match after having been injured for some time. He hopes his team will keep fighting for theiruntil the end.
    "It's a tremendous joy to score; I've been waiting for a game like this for a long time. I think I've given a clear answer on the field to all of those who have criticized me," said Kaká.

    A few short minutes after the opening of the game, in minute 5, the Meringues opened the score. A foul gave a free kick to Esteban Granero, who crossed a pass that was headed by Sergio Ramos, putting the scoreboard at 1-0. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]kaka ricardo[/url] Barcelona had other opportunities and some penalty appeals, but in the end the game finished 4-1 with a victory for Barca.
