~VINTAGE HOME TOUR - Guthrie Oklahoma~

Last week while I was taking pictures of the vintage brick buildings in Guthrie, Oklahoma, I also snapped a few photos of some of the sweetest old homes in the town as well! Below are a FEW of those you can find in this historic town... I love the house above but it does sorta remind me of a little church...what do you think?

While my camera clicked away my hubby walked up and grabbed one of the information sheets on this property. This house is listed for $289,000. Not a bad price unless you consider the fact that you can just about touch the neighbor's house next door!

I especially love this one! Truly magical...but...those shrubs gotta go. I'm sure the owners are keeping them because they are no doubt as old as the house. Still...they remind me B-I-G GREEN GHOSTS! :(

Now...this house is a charmer! Painted yellow brick and all. Wasn't that song in the Wizard of Oz "Follow the Yellow Brick House?" :)...

Here's another beauty! Three full levels of absolute perfection! I'm not sure if the first floor was always "glassed in". I'm thinking that it might have once been an open porch...

Now...this is one I would buy! I love everything about it. The cream with white trim and the black shutters just steal my heart away... I could absolutely live here!

I can certainly appreciate the style of this beautiful home! Not one I would probably buy, but it is gorgeous none-the-less! Reminds me of something you'd find in Beverly Hills, California!

I fell in love with the porch and railing on this pretty home! It is in lovely condition and you can tell it's been well cared for...

In this part of historic Guthrie the streets are still red brick! I just love it!

Now...the next picture is something that will make your heart skip a beat...

What in the world happened? This is truly devastating to see. Not sure how old this house was...about 100 years old...don't know what caused this fire either!!! My Mr.AGPMan and I crept up close to get a better view of the interior damage and the entire thing is charred black! Someone's dream went up in smoke! :.....(

I promise to show you more vintage homes in Guthrie before the Summer's end.

Blessings to you as you wonder with me what it would be like if these houses could talk...Rebecca

~GUTHRIE OKLAHOMA...It's in MOVIES!~

Hello Friends...

Lots of pictures today with only a few words... How odd is that?

Most of you know I live in Edmond, Oklahoma. What you probably don't know is that I attend church in Historic Guthrie, Oklahoma... Every Sunday we drive north about 15 miles to this charming little Town that is actually FAMOUS in it's own right! My hubbs is the Worship Leader at our church and almost without fail we lunch at one of town's cozy eateries (and shop the Antique Malls!) before returning home!


Guthrie is a beautiful town! It has been used as a SET in many Hollywood Movies because of it's lovely old brick buildings and old time feel....

This is just one example of what you will see if you ever make your way through the streets of this dusty Oklahoma Town!

Remember the Movie "Rain Man" with Tom C. and Dustin H.? Guthrie served as the backdrop for the scene that was suppose to be San Francisco! Imagine that!?

Parts of the Movie "Twister" were shot in Guthrie as well...

Know what else? Jessica Alba was just here two weeks ago filming another Movie! How cool is that? Not sure what the name is...I do know crowds of people were everywhere during the shoot...

The Town routinely hauls in dirt to cover up the paved streets...wow! This was one of the original Banks in town...it's now an Antique Shop...great stuff in there!

This is an old house/church...I think! We can never really tell!

Amazing ANTIQUES and lots of fun junk to browse through...


This is a wonderful Pet Hospital...complete with refurbished Coca Cola Sign!

One of my most favorite places to shop! I'd love to OWN that car (DREAM)!

On this picture-taking trip I also snapped lots of pictures of Historic Homes as well. Promise to give you all a peek at those in a few days...

Hope you are having a wonderful week....

Blessings to you as you enjoy your beautiful State...Rebecca
