Postcard #4 (The Blue Whale)

September 24, 2011 by Scott W. Smith

I know in this day and age of cable Tv and the Internet that it’s hard to see something you’ve never seen before, but here’s a photo of The Blue Whale on Route 66 in Catoosa, Oklahoma. And even if you’ve seen it before, it was just restored a couple of weeks ago. So not that many people have seen the Blue Whale in all its glory. You can find The Blue Whale on Facebook and at www.BlueWhaleRoute66.com .

I’m photographed here with Blaine Davis, the curator of The Blue Whale.
