Broken Casino Sign 0535 B

Broken Lucky Star casino sign in Roundup, population 1,700, in Musselshell County, Montana.

 

Roundup has a lot of great small town photo scenes and is an interesting place. Would like to shoot here again when the light is better. Had a delicious BBQ sandwich for lunch at The Backporch while I waited for the sun to move (or clouds) so I could shoot a beautifully surreal mural across the street. Alas, the light was still awful after I had finished lunch and I didn't get the shot.

 

The town was first settled in the 1880s as a central cattle location in open range Montana. The town is quite proud of its past, and there are landmarks and references to the early history of the area throughout town. Spent about 3 hours here and finally had to get back on the road.
