The dog in the Library hallway
Looks like this was part of the original 2003 library mural project.

The last glimpse of a James Abbot mural in McCleary
Jan. 2, 2016
The last glimpse of a James Abbot mural in McCleary, shortly before the remaining wall of the former Rhodes Grocery was destroyed. The little building on the corner, also destined to be cleared, was the office of Norman Porter's newspaper, The McCleary Stimulator, in the 1950s.
