John Wayne in Clovis

Think you're a big John Wayne fan? Got all the movies and a bunch of posters to boot? Well, you can't hold a candle to a friend of ours in Clovis, NM, who has a 16 foot mural of The Duke in her back yard.
The mural was done by noted local artist Charlie Hager, who's work can also be seen at the Billy the Kid museum and gravesite in Ft Sumner.
The scene was inspired by the movie Hondo, and by John Ford's favorite western location, Monument Valley.
