Downtown Laramie is the best place to model! The aesthetic of Laramie makes every picture 100% cooler. Photos by @theworldhasbeautyy #mylaramie by Rin

Did you know that downtown Laramie has a barn?? Well we do!! At the @4thstreetstudios! I got to tour the property and talk to Rene who is amazing. I'm excited for the future of this studio and property, and I hope you are too!! P.S. And that greenhouse!!! 😍😍😍😍 #mylaramie by @historicwyoming

Stopped by @worksofwyoming to take a selfie with the wonderful Lorena. We had the coolest conversation about history (of course), art, and how we're both Kansans. - Works of Wyoming is great shop that highlights amazing local artist (like @lukeandersonpaintings whose painting we took a selfie in front of). Take a minute from your day to check it out and chat. You won't regret it. - Also! Holy shoot! Look how many out of state/out of country people visit Works of Wyoming!! #mylaramie by @historicwyoming

Hi there! My name is Rin and I'll be taking over the Downtown Laramie Instagram this week! I'm a historic preservationist with the Alliance for Historic Wyoming, which is a statewide historic preservation non profit that preserves places and spaces. Our office is located at the beautiful and wonderful @thedurlacher, which is a wonderfully historic building. But my favorite part of working at the Durlacher and downtown is the people! They are the most wonderful, coolest, and awesome people I know. I'm excited to be posting this week and I will see you tomorrow! #mylaramie by: @historicwyoming

Well guys, it’s been an awesome week sharing Commuknitty events, delicious food, and urban sketching with you! I hope you enjoyed it too. Thank you for having me! .. .. #mylaramie photo by @tess_lackey

My first memory of downtown was at Coal Creek Coffee. It was around March 2016, and it snowed a good foot or two the first week I was here. I ordered my favorite drink, a latte, and stayed there drawing and enjoying the atmosphere for quite some time. .. .. #mylaramie photo by @tess_lackey

I would eat ice cream everyday if I could because I’m a sucker for a good scoop of ice cream in a waffle cone. It is pretty much perfection right in your hand. .. .. Lucky for me The Big Dipper in downtown Laramie does not disappoint! Have you tried the grapefruit sorbet? .. .. #mylaramie photo by @tess_lackey

Instead of a picture my favorite way to capture a place is to sketch it. For one it helps me slow down and thoroughly enjoy the place that I’m at. It improves my drawing skills, and it gives me a way to look back and see not only where I’ve been but also how far I’ve come. .. .. With the lights and the atmosphere, Front Street seemed like the perfect place to do some #urbansketching. I sketched my outline while there, and waited until later to work in some color. .. .. #mylaramie photo by @tess_lackey

If you have ever tried to pick a place to eat downtown then you know it’s not an easy task. With so many options I often want a little bit of something from each place. .. .. Nevertheless I do have a few favorites, and top on the list is Napoli’s. Every dish I’ve had there has been amazing, and I usually have leftovers so I can enjoy it all over again the next day! Second on the list would have to be the Pad Thai fries from the Crow Bar, and last, but far from least, would be the mac and cheese from Sweet Melissa’s. Do you guys have any favorites that I should put on my list to try? .. .. #mylaramie photo by @tess_lackey
