WINTER WONDERLAND AT WOOLAROC

to the southwest just 12 miles. 

It was the ranch of Frank Phillips who was the founder of Phillips Petroleum Company headquartered in Bartlesville, Oklahoma.  He built a Museum on the grounds that is full of the most amazing artifacts and art, even shrunken heads!  He collected exotic
animals and there are still plenty of wildlife on the ranch.


We locals grew up loving this place feeling like it is "our own". My mother played here as a child as did her children, grandchildren, and now great grandchildren. 
I do not care how old you are you never grow jaded
to not appreciate the beauty of this place.

I am going to take you on a little tour of our little jewel in the Osage.

WOOLAROC, OSAGE COUNTY, OKLAHOMA

We spent one beautiful summer morning at the Woolaroc Mountain Men encampment and it was a fun and very enlightening experience.
We were able to shoot black powder, throw tomahawks, and get a history lesson on the lives of mountain men in the 1800's United States.
