The highwaqy runs straight through "downtown" Pauls Valley,

Pauls Valley, despite its small population seems abundant in both dried patches of grass and huge, blue skies

wow. this is about as deadpan as they come. nice. "downtown" is hardly bustling. i cant wait til the residents of show up to tell us about how "great" their town is. heh...

I like how you didnt even actually go into town...at all. But stayed about 4 miles outside of town to take a picture of an old run down light factory and a warehouse and claim that those pictures are our "downtown". We actually have nice things in Pauls Valley..like running water, wagons that take our kids to school, and some police that protect us from the constant Indian attacks. Wait..thats probably what you think of PV. I'm not saying its the most exciting town in the world...but way to go portraying it how you wanted it to look.

WHAT?! thats just funny!...considering pauls valley is nothing at all like that. i think mike said it all.

Damn, Twister made Oklahoma seem much more exciting.

John : 15th Jun 2007 - 03:49 GMT

I am kind of let down. Well, I guess Hollywood make even barfing seem fun.

Race: 25th Jun 2007 - 21:30 GMT

Wow. Now this is ridiculous. I'm from Pauls Valley and I've never even seen this building in my entire life. The ignorance of this piece continues to astound me. This guy needs to work for Fox News.

This is a very sad commentary and certainly not factual. I no longer live in Pauls Valley but it is a beautiful place to raise children. The downtown is historic and very interesting. I am very disappointed in this information. Please, take the time and truly visit this beautiful community and the wonderful people who call it home. Ira

to everyone who is offended by this series of posts, i would say that to me they are more a commentary about how boring scott's trip was than the towns themselves.

The Beach, Part 6


my day at the beach. family day, fun day, parents and children enjoying the sea and sand together. fun day all day long listening to children jumping in waves and squealing with delight the ride to shore on...
