New York Moon Will Shine Again In Wyoming! In the past 80 years (that would be many moons ago), the Moondance Diner has welcomed many dedicated patrons and a few celebrity types.  Serving up a heap of banana pancakes, one mean cup of joe, and not to mention a dollup of Soho Sensationalism, its presence on the corner of 6^th and Grand has been, to many, part of their daily routine. What once was, is now a mere shadow; cast not by the Moon, but piles of dust and debris gathered for a quiet memorial.All is not lost! As someone once said, “let there be light!” This weary traveler has arrived and, as expected, slightly morphed. It is a hollow shell; its belly no longer full of busy patrons stopping by for a quick bite and chit chat…. Its glorious neon crown safely stowed in storage and no extra frills or fancy trim to distract; just a diner. Moondance has given its all for the over 2300-mile journey and so, as it deserves, will cozy itself into a resting spot for a short while.Although its light has dimmed, it is not diminished. The Diner will get its dues; just like the classic black and white feature film gets color. The Moondance will once again be a beacon for dedicated patrons; serving up a heap of banana pancakes, one mean cup of joe, and not to mention a dollup of Wyoming Wit. Look West, reach for the Moon, and you’ll always land amongst the stars, (maybe a celebrity or two?)

The Casper Star Tribune was on site for the arrival of the Moondance and unloading the next day.  They produced a video including an interview with Cheryl and Vince.
