You gotta stop here and get a feel for East Texas and what it must have been list nearly 100 years…read moreago when Texas Tea was the center of all. Oil, donchaknow? The dozen or so oil derricks set up here are interesting and you can see the size and scope of them. Imagine thousands of them across the flat prairie of East Texas. The marker reads, "Part of fabulous East Texas oil field discovered in 1930. This 1.195-acre tract had first production on June 17, 1937, when the Mrs. Bess Johnson-Adams & Hale No. 1 well was brought in. Developed before well-spacing rules, this block is the most densely drilled tract in the world, with 24 wells on 10 lots owned by six different operators. This acre has produced over two and a half million barrels of crude oil; selling at $1.10 to $3.25 a barrel, it has brought more than five and a half million dollars. A forest of steel derricks for many years stood over the more than 1,000 wells in downtown Kilgore, marking the greatest concentration of oil wells in the history of the world. Dozens of these derricks still dot city's internationally famous skyline. Since 1930, the East Texas oil field has produced nearly four billion barrels of oil. It now has more than 17,000 producing wells, and geologists predict a future of at least 45 years for this "granddaddy of oil fields." Its development has attracted to the area many diversified industries and a progressive citizenship with a high degree of civic pride. (1966)" Kilgore's fortunes changed dramatically on October 3, 1930, when wildcatter Columbus M. "Dad" Joiner struck oil near the neighboring town of Henderson. This well, known as the Daisy Bradford #3, marked the discovery of the vast East Texas Oil Field. Seemingly overnight Kilgore was transformed from a small farming town on the decline into a bustling boomtown. The Daisy Bradford #3 was subsequently followed by the Lou Della Crim No. 1 and many others. By 1936, the population had increased to more than 12,000, and Kilgore's skyline was crowded with oil derricks. THe boom was essentially over by 1940.

It's a really nice community park with plenty of shade and a steady breeze that kept it surprisingly comfortable, even in the middle of July. One of my favorite parts was seeing how many people were out enjoying it. There were people walking with family, riding bikes, taking their dogs to the dog park, and just getting outside. I always like finding parks that are clearly well-used by the local community. The trail itself is on the shorter side, but it's well maintained and has exercise stations scattered along the route if you want to turn your walk or run into more of a workout. I didn't use them this time, but it's a nice feature. The trailhead also has a dog park and even a dog washing station, which looked like a great setup for pet owners. If you're in the area and looking for a pleasant place to get some exercise or just enjoy some time outside, I'd definitely recommend stopping by.
