With this job, it's easy to take for granted all of things that one is able to experience. Amazing concerts, breathtaking sporting events, naked men dancing- it's all been great. The biggest honor, however, comes from being around members of our military and their families.

We all remember where we were on September 11, 2001. We all remember exactly what we were doing when we heard that two planes had crashed into the Twin Towers in New York City. We all knew that we would never forget that day, for the rest of our lives. Since that day 11 years ago, Americans have banded together more than ever to help our fellow man.

It seems that as summer turns into autumn, marriage fever hit’s a fever pitch, no pun intended. Brides seem to get an itch that can only be scratched by doing lots and lots of wedding shopping. Luckily for brides in Casper, they are covered. This is because for the past three years, the Wolcott Galleria has sponsored a Bridal Walk in downtown Casper.

Living in Wyoming, we are afforded many opportunities to experience sheer serenity. One of the best places to experience utter tranquility is Casper Mountain, and on Saturday the sounds of fall were upon us. Birds were singing, the wind was rustling leaves, and humans were screaming for their lives. That’s because on this day,  Casper Mountain was overrun with terrifying flesh-eating Zombies, all

If anyone had any doubts that this year's Beartrap Summer Festival wouldn't be one of the greatest years ever, those doubts were erased as soon as the first band took to the stage. Red June opened Beartrap Summer Festival 2012 and as soon as the first note rang out, festival-goers knew that they were in for what could possibly be the greatest Beartrap Festival of all time...

Now that the CWFR has come and gone, we thought it would behoove us to "take to the streets" and find out what YOU thought of the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo. Here's what we learned: People love The Power, adults are more shy than kids, and bulls are A-holes. Don't believe us? Check out these vids and let us know what YOU loved about the CWFR.

Mmm. Fair food is my absolute favorite kind of food in the world. I spent the entire week at the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo, and ate an inordinate amount of fair food. I ate burgers, and hot dogs, and corn dogs, and bbq, and funnel cake, and curly fries and ice cream. It was the greatest week of my life. Here are some pictures.

All my life, I've wanted to be a carnival worker (carnie, for short). I'm not exactly sure why- maybe it's the art of the sell, or the allure of taking people's money because they're too stupid to stop playing. Maybe I just like cat-calling people. Whatever the reason, I've always wanted to be one. That will never happen, so I resigned myself to just meeting a few of them at this year's Central Wy

It's been a wild ride at the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo, and we totally intended for that pun. This is because the Rodeo part of the CWFR has been a roller coaster (or a bull ride?) of emotions. There were winners, losers, dreams chases,dreams realized, and dreams crushed as men and women put i all on the line for their shot at glory. Here are just a few photos from the CWFR Finals.

It's been a heckuva week for the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo. All sorts of people came out to ride rides, eat good (but not good for you) food, throw up on their friends, watch the rodeo and more. Here are some pics from the final night of the CWFR.

When Chelsea Strama came to Casper with her company for the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo, she had no idea what local beauty awaited her. As she saw the amazing sites that our town had to offer, she knew that she needed to record some of it for prosperity...and to show highlights during the rodeo itself!

The Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo is in full swing, so we thought we would take this opportunity to tell you what our 5 favorite things about the fair are. These options were put together by a steady stream of scientists who spent years calculating the fun ratio of each activity...actually, we just went to the fair one night and came up with them. So with that, here is Our Top 5 Best Parts of the
