Wednesday in Wyoming -- January 28, 2015

It's the time of the year when most of us are heating our houses, but you're probably not using a stove like this one.  I found this rather ornate stove in the Homesteader Museum in Powell, Wyoming.  As pretty as it is, it still makes me wonder how effective it was at heating.  Have you ever heated a room with a stove like this?

Wednesday in Wyoming -- January 21, 2015

Does this scene look familiar?  It should, because it's practically the same location as my cover picture.  What you're seeing are the Laramie river, the old guard house and the ruins of the administration building at Fort Laramie National Historic Site.  This picture was taken in January, the cover in early June.  What a difference five months makes!

Wednesday in Wyoming -- January 14, 2015

Doesn't this look like an inviting place to spend a snowy winter day?  It's at the appropriately named Snow Lodge in Yellowstone National Park.  The first time I visited Snow Lodge, the best I could say about the accommodations was that they kept us warm and dry.  Years later, the old motel-style Snow Lodge was replaced by Yellowstone's most modern facility.  It's still a warm and dry place, but now it boasts style and luxury.

Wednesday in Wyoming -- January 7, 2015

It's winter in Wyoming, and what better place to be than Yellowstone National Park?  Even though the majority of the roads are closed, limiting travel to snowmobiles, snow coaches and ... yes ... cross country skis, the contrast of the thermal features with the snow is spectacular.
