Tales from Nature: “Blondie” – by Wayne Hassinger, 3H Photography
Welcome back to Tales From Nature blog brought to you by 3H Photography. I’m excited to share a great experience from a few years back along with several of the limited edition pictures that came from the experience. “Blondie” is definitely one of my most awe-inspiring experiences out in the wild, and it is my hope that you can feel the excitement of the encounter. “Blondie” Late October in the Tetons means there’s a chance of snow at any moment. The elk are recovering from the rut, the majority of the tourists have gone home, and the bears are preparing for a long winter’s nap. As the grizzlies ready for…

But I loved the old Penney’s and I took a trip down memory lane at that company’s long-time store on Main Street of Sheridan recently. There, smack in the heart of the town, is an old-fashioned Penney Store, complete with a basement, a…

Laramie’s Higher Ground Fair 2016
A new regional fair to celebrate rural living in the Rocky Mountains is coming to Laramie September 24 and 25.
