Saturday

My blog yesterday sparked a discussion about "Marvin".  Remember Marvin, the controversial large sculpture of a cowboy's head that was full of holes.  Many didn't consider the sculpture "art" at all, and I have to admit I wasn't real impressed with him.  There was a debate whether or not to leave him out in view, and eventually he was stored "somewhere" while they were landscaping or something.

Well, Marvin never appeared in public again in Pinedale, and some of us are wondering what became of him.  Betty thought maybe he was in Big Piney, maybe at the fairgrounds?

Anyone know where Marvin is?

 
Poor Marvin!  Gone but not forgotten!

"That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind"   On this day in 1969.  I remember watching this on TV when I was in summer school in Laramie.  First step on the moon!

You know, there are people still today that don't believe that man has walked on the moon

Ahh you brought up a memory. We were on a packtrip when the first step on the moon occurred. Harry Steele had brought a radio so we could hear it. We did...and we were camped in New Fork Canyon.
