Day 32 was a long ride through three states. We completed our seventh day riding in Oklahoma, then we cruised through 12 miles of Kansas and ended the ride pedaling through Joplin and into Carthage, MO (our seventh state).

Today’s ride through NE OK really showed off the murals we’ve seen throughout Oklahoma.

The town of Miami seemed to have murals on every building. All well done.

In the lower left corner of this Miami mural you can see OMS - Oklahoma Mural Syndicate. Perhaps that accounts for the number of murals we’ve seen. OMS is a non-profit organization “dedicated to advocating and creating public art in Oklahoma. Very cool; we like it.

The Coleman Theater in Miami was built in 1929 and is still in operation today. It is listed on the national register of historic properties.

RT 66 continues to surprise us. Tomorrow we strike out for Springfield, MO, another long and windy ride (80 miles or so), but with rain forecast for Saturday, we’re planning on a day off.
