Comté de Hemphill : idées de séjour, infos pratiques et culturelles

Five miles south of Canadian, Texas, you will find "Aud", Gene Cockrell's Dinosaur, that he built and named after his wife Audrey. Fifty feet long, seventeen feet tall, and weighing a ton, you won't miss it, just look up on top of the bluff to the east.

In 1916 a steel bridge was built over the waters of the Canadian River for wagon travel. The 3,255 ft pin-connected bridge is the longest in the state. It was closed in 1953 when a new bridge was constructed. In 2000 it was completely restored and is now the focal point for a scenic hike-and-bike trail. The bridge provides a platform for viewing wildlife, including white-tailed deer, wild turkey and waterfowl.
The Sculpture Garden is the home of a large bronze sculpture that the Abrahams commissioned in 1990 called "Coming of Winter: The Forerunner." by William Pochial. It carries an urgent message about the threats to the environment. Mostly, it carries junior high potty humor memories for me as I just remember the 'naked statue' being installed when I was in elementary school down the street. Now that I'm a bit older and kinda more mature, I can appreciate the art behind it. #perspectives
