Gordon's Select Market, McCleary, Washington, pt. 3

The above photos were taken Sept. 7 and 8, 2013. The mural was showing very obvious signs of aging.

I didn't know it when I took the above photos, but the mural was slated to end. This final picture was taken Sept. 14, 2013. Although I miss this McCleary landmark, I am sure the cost and effort of restoring this large work would have been considerable, especially since the original artist was no longer around. Still, it had a good run of almost a quarter century.
