2024 in Review: Town Name Murals – My 500th Post

Sumoflam in Fate, TX

First of all, this is my 500th blog post since beginning my blogging in 2008!!

When I am traveling I am always going through the small towns and big ones on the lookout for large murals that welcome visitors to their towns and cities.  This continued to be one of my objectives in travel in 2024.  There is always a great variety of these from large to small.  Unlike my regular mural posts, I don’t spend any time looking for the artists of these signs.  Just want to share the photos and the locations. Have a lot from Oklahoma and Texas since I took a couple of trips there.  Let’s go!! Enjoy the Ride.
