Casper is the 2nd largest in the state right behind Cheyenne. There's about 50,000 people in Casper.

If you enjoy camping, hunting, fishing or any other form of "outdoorsy" stuff, then Wyoming is a paradise. For a city boy like me, not so much.

You can see all of my Wyoming Pics @ this link.

Here's a skyline picture I took on the way to visit a relatvie in Maringouin.

Here's a picture of the water tower in Maringouin, which is a small little town in Iberville Parish. It's the French word for "mosquito".

Here's a couple of pics I took of some flowers around my house.

The new Courthouse(stairwells/elevator shafts) and new II City Plaza on the opposite end of Fourth Street

Richy, did you make a friend while taking this photo? Looks like the guy down there is waving at you.

My mom and I went mall-hopping today so I figured I'd snap a few pics. I've read recently that Dillard's might be in some trouble, I sure hope not though. It seems to be doing well down here.

I hope that Dillards does well.....It's pretty much the only place to buy decent men's clothing if you are the department store type.

Crazy you noticed that Brian! I did not even notice when taking the pic.

Colorful pic Dan!

Here is a closer-up from the Belle of BR parking garage; still much of the CBD buildings not able to see from this angle

I was reading on the Urban Planet Arkansas forums yesterday (Little Rock, I believe?) and from what I read, Dillards' future doesn't look too bright. Might be worth a read.

Crazy you noticed that Brian! I did not even notice when taking the pic.

lol well, he could have a toy airplane (a very small one) in his hand and could be flying it around.

True Brian, or blocking the sun out of his eyes??

South end of Fourth Street undergoing a nice transformation with II City Plaza(left) nearly complete; and new Courthouse rising up straight ahead

That too! lol

I love this view, Richy. Downtown BR is looking nice.

[dan326]

That is a great picture, B.R. is starting to look like a real city!

[richyb83]

Thanks yall! Brian; looks like BR is taking the lesson from Shreveport to build a more dense urban core; I have always said BR was so spread-out. You are right Dan; that's what I was thinking when driving down Fourth Street; has more of a city feel on that end of the CBD.

Some snow pics from around town and LSU!

[dan326]

Here's a couple of my snow pics.

Here's a 7-8ft tall snowman I built. I went inside to warm up and when I went back outside to add a face it had collapsed.

Snow at AT&T engineering office on Sherwood Forest Blvd

[tombarnes]

You guys are getting more snow down there than we have had so far in Washington this year! Nice pics!

[richyb83]

Thanks to everybody for sharing all those photos Fantastic shots!!! Can you believe this??? Could not hardly believe how heavy the snowfall got! WOW!

Typical sub-tropical BR will be in the back near 70 on Sunday!

[southeastBR]

Here's the Old Bridge angle. Sorry for the gloomy day. I believe if I had a 300mm zoom, I would be able to get a better detailed pic.

[richyb83]

Nice shot southeastBR! It's tough getting good pics this time of the year with all the gloomy/cloudy skies + extra low sun angle.

The wall of new state buildings looks impressive. The new courthouse is looking good; even being on the opposite end. Too bad new II City Plaza is being blocked,

[byrde]

Merry Christmas!
