Truckin Down to Cooper

In an afternoon of spontainity an idea was birthed in the minds of our Photography class to take a trip to Cooper. Along the way I saw some interesting sights, met some wonderful people, and had some of the best ice-cream (Home Made!) I've ever had the pleasure or honor to enjoy. This is a collage of my trip (:

you never know what wonders you'll find when choosing the road less traveled

Mabel's Ice Cream Machine

Our Fountain Drinks are Made ONLY as you watch with delicious, cold, clear, pure water from the grassy cedar laden uplands and cool, clay-packed bottom of Big Creek Lake.

My .75 cent ice cream cone from Mabel's Home made Ice cream :) mmmmm

durring the Great Depression people were hired to go around and do murals to add art and beauty to towns...and also to give the government an excuse to spend money in an attempt to raise the economy. This is one of those murals.

Cooper Cemetary

Nifty little cabin found off some dirt road a little ways from the dam, made completely from wood

Goodbye Cooper!
