Scarecrows & More Murals in Ashland Wisconsin

See ashland color temp picture file. Hitchhiking on a fall festival in nearby Bayfield, Ashland began their own Scarecrow Festival in 2009. The scarecrows add color and fun to walking around downtown Ashland, supplementing the mural walk.

Each year it seems Ashland adds a few more murals to their interesting collection. More excuses to get out of the car and walk around town!

< < < These 7 murals are snapshots of Ashland from the 1950's. The close up of the 1955 Chevie is a twin of my very first automobile. How often I've thought I wished I'd kept that sweet little car.

The Oredock Mural is under construction. It depicts an Ashland landmark, the 1800 foot long concrete oredock, built in 1916 and was the largest concrete dock in the world. No longer in service, it is slated to be torn down so this mural will soon be the best representation of its grandeur from an age when Ashland was a major Lake Superior shipping port. > > >
