Thats sad to hear, Dubois is a cool little town. Its been a long times since I was through there. One favorite memory was sitting on a bench in front of a store and drinking a strawberry/banana milkshake watching the kids cruise the several blocks of main street, turn around and cruise back. Two girls were cruising on their horses also. They then doubled up on one and were riding up and down the sidewalks, which are boardwalks. I swung my feet up on the bench when they came through several times, they were ducking under the porch roofs of the buildings as they rode by. Makes me smile to think about it still.

Isnt it amazing how many people post without reading the thread?

Prayers offered up for the townspeople affected. Does anyone think it was deliberate?

That breaks my heart. Dubois was one of my absolute favorite small towns on that long main street of Wyoming.
