Searcy Sleuths have grown sleepy. We have had no challenges lately. So here is one. This is a great card that is for sale on ebay right now. I may buy it if someone does not beat me to it. Note the kids playing on the tracks. Was it fun to balance yourself on the tracks and walk along withou

This picture was contributed to this blog by Roger Dobbins. He says that this is a shot of men's Sunday School Class at the Methodist Church in Searcy. They appear to be in front of the First United Methodist Church on Main Street, one of the most historic structures in Searcy and White County

We have done The Hawkins Clinic Hospital in Searcy AR several times in our blog. It was located at the corner of Market Street and Grand Avenue which is now a Harding University parking lot. My favorite one was probably the one with two young Searcy girls that we know and love standing beside
