Classic scene driving through Wyoming

Fun in Big Piney (Pop. 552) & Marbleton (Pop. 1094)

Bowling!!! What better way to spend a cold evening in Wyoming? It was so fun!

A Tour of La Barge, WY (Population 551)

Lauren and Matthew posing before the walk.

One of two essentials in a Wyoming town. And this one is optional.

I like brightly colored machinery

Katie and I had a good laugh at this...when no one was around. Irony of the day? I was wearing my "use commas" shirt. Grammar, anyone? (no charge for the free advertising)

When Matthew did not want to walk anymore, he just tucked himself in.

It was the only curve I saw.

The second of two essentials for a Wyoming town; not optional. This town used to have 3 bars. Now it is down to 1. This was the most recent bar to close.

One of the local motels

I laughed aloud at this reader board

One of the lovely homes we passed. Many nearby are being torn down by a big backhoe.

Lauren did not want to wear her mittens...

The beautiful cliffs over look Green River (the river) and La Barge (the town)

La Barge has more to it than the above pictures. I met the people and they are wonderful and down to earth. I also did not highlight the library, which reminded me a bit of the Manzanita Library. I really did enjoy the walk and the tour of town. Thank you, Katie and kids!!!

Bald Eagles

I was lucky enough to see a pair of bald eagles on my way to La Barge, WY. I had just turned off I-80 and was headed north on I-189 towards Kemmerer, WY.
