the 1st J.C. Penney Store, in Kemmerer, WY

in response to this: https://mltshp.com/p/1RM6N

This is the "1st" J.C. Penney store, by which I mean that it was the 1st actual store instead of being operated out of a house. You can't miss it - it's on J.C. Penny Drive in the Historic J.C. Penny District in a *very* small town in Wyoming. (Also one of my very favorite areas/towns in Wyoming - I've thought about retiring nearby someday.)

For old cemetery aficionados the town also has one of the better old mining cemetery/monuments I've seen.

I didn’t explore the town much, but I did spend a couple days there digging up fossil fish once.

@crazyunclejoe YES what fun!! Literally right now I've been spending weeks cleaning up a fossil stingray from there to give as a gift to my BFF - I've spent months over my career working in some "special places" (no public access) so I've got a pretty good collection. I'd really like to drag my husband to one of those pay to dig quarries one day though!! When I was in high school my dad announced that he and I were going on a "special fishing trip" and we drove and drove and drove - I thought we were going to Jackson to fish one of the lakes or the river but instead he took me to Kemmerer to do just what you did, and I loved it *so much*. Hope you really enjoyed it too!

(Also got the worst sunburn of my life the first time I spent a week there working because I completely underestimated just how much the sun would bounce off all that white rock, lol.)

Aren't we all so lucky to live in such an amazing world, right?!

@williwaw - Stingray, Wow!

Our trip was a bonding trip for my FiL and my kid, but Zoe was nervous to go without a parent. It was great, and I think good bonding for a,l three of us. :)
