I worked in Wyoming for a number of years, and kept a fishing license for exactly that purpose, to catch my dinner. Catching and smoking trout was my favorite pastime in Wyoming. Sand burrs popped my bicycle tires in Casper, and that's when I learned of a product called "Slime," a green gloop that is put inside tubes and tires to seal holes. I currently live in Mexico, and am based in Texas. But I've been considering bringing my motorcycle and my Tahoe and setting up a little cabin in the woods as a base, to drive roads and see the parks. Once, many years ago, I visited Devil's Tower, which has it's own post office. I took hundreds of photographs of the sunrise from the roadside about a half mile before the actual landmark, between the sun and the tower. As the horizon shadow started at the top of the tower, and as the sun came up behind me, the line of light traveled down the tower until the tower was the only thing lit, no ground before me seeing direct sunlight yet. Then... Like magic... The sun's light finally reached me where I stationed myself, and a big beautiful mule deer was standing in the road, close to me, between me and the tower. I got lots of pictures of that. I then drove to the post office at the base of the tower... And met the lady postmaster. Her vehicle was 4 wheel drive, and she let me use her vehicle to drive to the top up the road that twisted around to the left to go up to the backside. I had given the lady my keys to help her feel more comfortable about her offer to me to let me drive her vehicle up to the tip. I passed the park ranger on my way up, and he knew whose vehicle that was... He was almost panicking. I thought "Oh crap. He's going to turn around and pull me out at gunpoint." But he was nowhere to be seen after I returned from taking my photos up there. The postmaster must have explained the deal, showed him my keys, and probably left without a worry. Maybe he searched my vehicle to see if I was ok. I mean... They had my keys. I don't know, don't care. Because, I did get to go up to the top of the road, which, doesn't actually go to the top of the tower. You can't climb to the top of the tower, unless you are a well outfitted rock climber. That tower comes straight out of the ground all the way around. After 15 minutes up at the back, I got my photos and came back down, and traded keys back with the postmaster. I kept gushing about how beautiful it was up there. She was smiling as if to say, "Yeah... I know..." Something else that happened, probably that same year... I went up a mountain highway, parked and got out to look out on the plains from my perch. A lady stopped to check on me to see if I was alright. "Yes, I'm ok! I'm just taking pictures." We got into a conversation about the elk hunting, and she invited me to come hunting at her big property. She and her husband owned an enormous spread, where they helped manage a herd of wild free range elk that preferred to stay on their property. She gave me her phone number and I hate that I never did take her up on that. I had my brother and his two sons all hankering for an elk hunt on her land... It just never materialized. In Laramie, I met a couple who owned a tack store. They were interested in the book I was writing at that time. They allowed me to take photos of their store for my book. I believe if I moved there, to SOMEWHERE in Wyoming, the creative juices would begin to flow again, and I'd be extremely happy and productive there. Mexico is sucking the life out of me. The outdoor life in Wyoming... That's what I'm interested in. And the people are so real, so nice. And protective of one another. And the food. Oh my God. Some of the best food in the country. Maybe even, the BEST food in the country. I've spent $400 at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in Beverly Hills, CA,, when I took 3 friends out to dinner... But those steaks pale in comparison to the $35 steaks in even the most modest family owned steakhouses in Wyoming. 🦌 🐃 🐟 Oh, forget it. Wyoming, here I come.

I heard some of the worst hate speech I’ve ever heard in my life! The “n” word was used by some people regularly in their normal conversations. It occurred on my jobs, in restaurants, in bars; really, everywhere. The word that comes to mind for me of my almost 9:yeats in Wyoming is “disrespect”. By the time I left, I swore to never cross even a corner of that state again. BTW, it was not just bigotry, but misogyny, and homophobia, etc.

My uncle sadly took his life in the "K dub" parking lot in 1987 (Munkres). My uncle Thomas "Tommy" Manning was killed a few years back by a drunk driver. I could go on and on. I suppose you could say that my family has history there. Not to mention that my great uncle Dean was "THE" population of Bill Wyoming in 1966 🙂(Munkres)Also, My brother and sister have a different dad than I do, and they lost him when the robbery of the Loomis Wells Fargo truck occured in the 80s (I believe) (Rogers).

Currently living in a state that will tax my pension when I start receiving it next year. Wyoming is a state that does not tax pensions nor social security. Also the state does not tax 401K either. With the Federal Reserve jacking up interest rates, busting up the Real Estate Market, and destroying the portfolios of millions of stock investors, some proactive retirement moves need to be done. With the interest rates so high, this would be an awful time to buy. So, renting a house would be a high priority as long as rent is affordable.
