A reported 22,000 fans gathered at Dexter Park in Brooklyn on Oct. 12, 1928, to watch Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig kick off their barnstorming tour with a game against the Bushwick All-Stars, a semi-professional team. To the crowds surprise (and probably delight), the pair appeared on the field prior to the game in cowboy outfits. But Ruth did better than just donning the outfit. He came onto the field and after mounting a police officer’s horse, proceeded to race “it around the field like a Buffalo Bill.”

I'd like to see more of the hat on the 1st guy in the wagon. I like that style.

"When photographer Mary Garrison of Ozark wed Sparta and Bruner native James St. John they quickly moved to Montana by around 1910. Mary must have taken her camera with her because this photo finds James and Mary's little baby Warren St John at "home" with his Montana Indian neighbors!!!"

Some of my neighbors from back in the day. Near Twin Bridges on the North Fork of the White River.

"Left to right, Olen Franklin Fish, William Joseph Fish, James Monroe (Roe) Fish, and the man in the suit is still a mystery."

"130 years ago today, 3 Christian County Bald Knobbers were hung on the square in Ozark, Missouri for the March, 1887 Edens-Green killings... ending the vigilante organization...or did it? An interesting, yet dark part of our Ozarks history, that should be remembered."
