Image title | Monument to Henry Bourne Joy, the first president of the Lincoln Highway Association, in what, to some, is a surprising location, since the Lincoln Highway is most often associated with old U.S. 30 in the American East -- especially Pennsylvania. But America's first automobile road extended clear across county, including through Wyoming. Bourne, who was also president of Packard Motors (and thus interested in promoting automobile travel), said that his efforts in creating a Lincoln Highway were his greatest achievement. The coast-to-coast highway existed as a private enterprise, managed by the Lincoln Highway Association and financed through memberships and donations from automobile and road building industries. Joy was camped in Wyoming in 1916 when he saw the most beautiful sunset he had ever witnessed. He told his traveling companions that he would like to be buried in this wild, wide-open western landscape that he loved so much. Following his death in 1936 his family elected to have him buried closer to home, but did create and place this impressive monument as a memorial to his life. The monument was moved to the I-80 Summit Rest Area east of Laramie in 2001 in order to protect it from increasing vandalism at its original, remote place. The new location is within sight of the highest point on the 3,500-mile coast-to-coast route of the original Lincoln Highway. It's also within sight of a giant statue to President Abraham Lincoln himself. |
