There was a statue of a white buffalo downtown next to a plaque honoring hunter J. Wright Mooar. |
Another Snyder welcome sign featured the three pillars of Snyder's economy: oil, cattle and cotton. |
This drive-through bank (" auto teller" )  had a  unique appearance. |
The restored Ritz Theatre was on the courthouse square. Also notice the strange mushroom-shaped canopy on the left with benches in the shade underneath them. There were several around the square. I imagined that they were intended to spruce up downtown in some misguided beautification plan, but they just looked weird. |
Here's a close-up of the Ritz sign. |
The Travelers Inn was in sad shape, but the sign was still standing. |
By the time I went to the Beacon Lodge to check in, the skies were threatening. |
This view is from the interior of the circle made by the motel's six buildings. |
