I call this one "Fountain Girl". There is no documentation of its real name or artist, but when I find out I'll come back and add it. I do know that plaques around the base identify this a monument to the women back in 1870 who first voted and served on a jury. Though the sculpture itself is decidedly not pioneer like!

Now I have always liked this statue, but if I recall correctly there were vocal few residents who did not welcome its arrival back in 1983. I think vandals even cut off one or more of the heads during a summer shortly after it was installed. Fortunately, they must have left them (it) behind and someone did a VERY good job of reattaching it(them?). Since then, any controversy over this overtly non-traditional not-western statue has faded. Thank goodness!

Apparently I've been aware of this GIANT Lincoln head my whole life. My parents tell me that as a two year old I used to shout "Pinkon, Pinkon" as we frequently made the round trip from Laramie to Torrington and back - many years ago. Of course that was when the monument was still on the actual Lincoln Highway. To read more about how and why they moved the monument you can go to:

Whether we like it or not, these things are "officially" called bison. I'll still always probably call them buffalo, but for today I'll be good. Anyway, these bison are very cool up close - the wire lends them an interesting texture and subtle movement. It also makes you wonder "How did he do that?!"
