It was a cloudy day when we were in town. I meant to go back on a sunny day, but it has been over a month now, so here goes with the cloudy day photos.
The Bible verse on the sign is John 13:34 "Love each other as I have loved you."
Independence Day celebration
The town gets its name from an important Native American Indian: Chief Tishomingo.
The railroad was key to the early development of the town and is still important today.
The old Tishomingo Agricultural High School
The Swinging Bridge is a pedestrian bridge at Tishomingo State Park. It is supported by steel cables and yes, it does sway a bit as you walk across it.

...it's nice to see Tishomingo, Mississippi's history spread out for all to see.
ReplyDeleteWhat an impressive way to get the town's name out. This set of murals is SO iconic and very American. Such lovely murals within the larger one and I especially enjoyed the July 4th celebration. Absolutely stunning.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful historical mural. I had never heard of the town of Tishomingo and went to google maps to find it.
ReplyDeleteAre those stones painted as well?
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Lea.
Yes, the stones are painted on the side of the building too
DeleteHello,

Take care, enjoy your week!
That is so good, Lea!
ReplyDeleteVery well presented.
ReplyDeleteWow, very impressive! Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing that we did everything we could to demean, degrade and exterminate First Nations and then named our towns after them, and created plaques to honour them.
