The Glass Chicken Tour
Bill & I rode to Mobeetie, Cheyenne, Woodward, and Canadian over the weekend. We visited battlefields (Washita), museums, and cemeteries (Elmwood and Gage) and broadened our historic horizons. In addition, Bill has come to greater appreciate the power of the Glass Chicken Phenomenon, having come across both a natural, spontaneous Glass Chicken with regard to Temple Houston and the movie "Cimarron", and a rare sighting of an actual fired, glazed, "glass" chicken at a grave marker a few feet away from Temple Houston's.
Also, while at the Pioneer Museum at Woodward, Bill found a book containing a photo of my great grandparents and grandmother (on my mother's side) that I had never seen, which I copied and reproduce here.
Later, we stopped in Canadian where as if to add to the irony of Sam Houston's youngest son migrating to Woodward, OK, we found a big screen TV and watched as Texas lost to Oklahoma 21-28.
