Cafe a' la John
Uploaded: October 18, 2007
This is the old Virginia Dale Cafe and post office. Long abandoned, the sign still sits atop the old building in the last town heading north out of Colorado on Hwy. 287.
In the style of one of my favorite BP members, John Caruso.
Enjoy!

Should have saved this sign for 2008 and then John would have to work hard to better it. :O)Susan M. Hembree October 18, 2007
