The Tanks Cast in Stone



The Mister received permission from Tami Ryall, the Town Deputy Director, to go past the barricades and look at the panels in the underpass at Recker and freeway 202. Somehow they didn't look as big as they did the first time I saw them, but they are indeed impressive. The Mister says they will be cleaned and painted when the freeway gets closer to being opened. Just a reminder that on the left you can see the representation of an irrigation ditch, with the pipes carrying the water out to the crop; next to that, of course, are the Morrison Ranch grain tanks, and in front of the tanks is a depiction of a round hay bale. To the right are the representations of wheat heads. Not shown, but on the outside of the underpass, are the train wheels, and also some cotton bolls. I'm sure I'm quite biased, but I think it is distinctive and appropriate for Gilbert, as well as artistic.
