Land Run Cowgirl

Guthrie's claim to fame centers around the Land Run of 1889. This weekend is 89er Weekend in Guthrie and all the little "munchkins" celebrate with a mock Land Run. Lillian dressed in her boots and cowgirl hat for the occasion. The Run itself was uneventful; the kids ran to one end of the yard and stuck a flag in the ground. They tired of it quickly. I wonder if the kids felt that way when their families were claiming land with a flag more than 100 years ago...
