Free land!

Gonna stake my claim!

One of the sights you will see as you float down the Bricktown canal is this determined gentleman greeting you.  He’s rushing to stake his land claim during the Oklahoma Land Rush.  Note the flagged stake under his arm.

Land Rush

For scale, note the people in the upper left of the photo.  Right at the water line (on both banks), you can make out horseshoe imprints moulded into the concrete.

Looks like it’s getting crowded.  I reckon these folks will split up and go their separate ways once they make this river crossing.
