Running on Back Log

It has been awhile!
Starting with the more recent…
Yesterday I installed two new text panels for the women inmate exhibit I’ve been working on for months! In May, when I thought everything was ready to be installed, my computer crashed and I lost all my designs. I wasn’t able to start working on this project again until about two weeks ago. We finally found a printer in town who could handle the size we wanted, my intern helped me track down artifacts, and our two seasonals (hired to restore the windows on the old Broom Factory) helped with installation. It was an exciting moment!



Jason and I spent Thanksgiving in Wheatland with family. Erin and Alex came down from Casper to join us. On our way through Sybille Canyon, we stopped to say hit to Teddy the buffalo and saw two female big horn sheep. On the way home the roads were slick and we almost hit a deer! Thank goodness my husband drives like James Bond under stress!

Sheep butt!

The weekend before Thanksgiving Jason and I went to Sheridan to help decorate Trail End State Historic Site for Christmas. It is a mansion so you can only imagine! (I didn't take photos but the curator Sharie did... Sharie, can you send me photos?)

Here are the elk that hang out in this big fenced pasture in the middle of Sheridan. Jason was working (hunting season is ALMOST over) but for Halloween I decorated pumpkins with our friends Meg, Bryce, Steve & Beth. You can check out Steve & Beth's blog to the right.

Here is Meg and the pumpkins!I carved a moose for Jason.
It is finally getting C-O-L-D in Wyoming! We’ve had some snow and are enjoying our fireplace. Last weekend I started decorating for Christmas. We’ll post pictures when everything is up and in its place.

Until then,Happy Holidays!
