My Favorite Part of Wyoming Living
I have lived in the wonderful state of Wyoming for the last six years. Aside from the 75 mph blinding winter wind and the summer thunderstorms that can produce quarter to baseball size hail and possible tornadoes, it's a refreshing place to live.

Ten Things About Me That Explain A LOT
