Medicine Park's Bigger & Better Christmas Parade

photographs thanks to Kim Fahrion & Michael Fahrion



Yes the kiddos and adults lined the streets of Medicine Park to catch the parade lead by the Medicine Park Volunteer Fire Dept and Medicine Park Police Force, the Comanche Police and Mayor Cope on his bike. There was shining example of Model A Ford. The Antique Tractor Club all decked out was back by popular demand. McQuacken the 12 ft. Duck waddled down the parade root. The Carolyn & Jerry's inflatable float carried a passel of little adorable tikes. The Marauders aboard the Medicine Wagon threw chocolate loot and shot a gun or two and gave a hoot. Our local clown scooted in and out in his little car. And last and best was jolly old Santa Claus with the lovely Mrs. Claus. Afterward anxious children lined up to let Santa know just what they wanted for Christmas.

Las Montañas Mexican Restaurant


Las Montañas is Spanish for "the Mountains". The perfect name for a Mexican Restaurant that has just opened in Medicine Park. After hearing several thumbs-up reviews from locals we decided to go out for lunch. The interior is a bright tomato red and sunshine yellow, a very pleasant look. The wait staff aims to please and was right there to take our order. The expected chips with salsa and cheese dips were delivered post haste and refilled instantly when they were low. Both the dips were tasty although I would have preferred a more substantial chip for scooping. We order from the lunch menu. We chose chile rellenos with beef, chicken fajitas and chicken flautas. My large single flautas came with guacamole, sour cream, beans and rice. I asked them to hold the cheese just because some restaurants use to much for my taste. I thought it was good and the rice was tastier then I have had at other Mexican eateries. My dining partners cleaned their plates. I was able to sneak a taste of chunky salsa that came with the chile rellenos. I will make sure I get my own serving next time. Our bill came to under $20 for the three of us. (We chose just to have water with our meal).
