New murals being painted in Barstow

The San Bernardino County Sun has a story about a volunteer group called Main Street Murals and its efforts along the main drag of Barstow, Calif.

Already, colorful murals in the area of Main Street depict the image of William Barstow Strong, for whom the city is named; the historic Harvey House depot, built in 1911; a map of the old Mormon trail, with scenes highlighting aspects of the journey; teams of camels that helped open the West, and an early-day automobile descending a hill on old Route 66.
