Great Signage of Wyoming: Laramie

12:28 PM 0 Comments


Last weekend we drove through Wyoming, en route to hot springs.

Laramie: pop. 27,000 people / 23 fantastic signs and storefronts.

Above: Marquee for the Wyo Theater. Currently playing (surprise!) the French film, I've Loved You So Long.


Above: Alexander's Fine Jewelry. Love the pink awning and those wonderful serving dishes.

My personal favorite: Alibi Drive In Liquors / Bar. There's such a great Jetsons feel to this sign.

Surprisingly, her name is not Laverne.

This all started last year when my neighbor, L, woke up on the wrong side of bed on her birthday. Somehow I, a not very experienced baker, got the idea to bake her a cake.

She was shocked. I was shocked. But it was good! And so it begins: a birthday cake -baking tradition.

Yellow cake (sans uranium) with vanilla frosting and a cocoa-powder L. I'm giving it to her tonight.

Today is L's birthday and here is her cake.

You know it's cold when you stand ON the river to get the shot.
