Fraught Tales and Cocktails - A Poe Speakeasy

Friday the 13th, and my wife and I attended a speakeasy experience in downtown Casper, at the Odd Fellows Building. There on an upper floor, resides an old theatre, which I never knew existed. We witnessed upon the stage four fraught tales...accompanied by four cocktails:

The Tell-Tale Heart - The Pale Blue Eye

The Black Cat - Edgar's Twisted Brandy Milk Punch -- my favourites, both the performance and the drink

The Raven - The Nevermore

The Masque of the Red Death - Cocktail of Red Death


At the Speakeasy


Quite an enjoyable evening, all the way through the ride home!

 


If ever the opportunity arises, be sure to attend.

MX Missle Alert

Visited the Missile Alert Facility north of Cheyenne.

Surreal. Completely surreal.

Indeed, quite the experience.

Whether you lived through the missile crises of the 80s or not, visiting the facility, a shell of what it once represented, is highly recommended.

The Devil's Slide

Slid past this devilishly interesting geological feature on our way to Utah.

So, we decided to stop by on our way back.
