Oklahoma or Bust by John Stewart Curry
This weekend marks the 150th Anniversary of the Homestead Act, providing the basis for the Oklahoma Land Rush. It’s also Bike to Work Day and National Bike Month, so it’s hard to resist the penny-farthing bicycle shown here.

Staking a claim on a mother farthing penny-farthing!
