history

It was a nightmarish, unstoppable scene: the 100-ton locomotive engine and first five (of seven total) train cars plummeted into the sand and water below.

Wyoming has a rich history and some of that history still remains active today.

Billboard advertising is nothing new. While the vast majority of these are digital nowadays, there's nothing quite like the nostalgia of seeing photos of Casper's past.

A historic local business is featured in a new short film by University of Wyoming senior, Jeremy Miller.

Casper has a rich history that dates back to the 1800's. So much has changed over time that it is hard to imagine our city any other way. Thanks to the fine folks at the Casper College Western History Center we are able to take a step back in time and see what Casper looked like in days past.

In Wyoming, it is estimated that 780 people died from the 1918 flu pandemic.

I have to ask for your help on this photo because I haven't been able to find out a whole lot about the CY ranch nor a ton of info on these Cowboys.

The Internet is all a buzz about this map going around showing just how much the population in each state has changed over the years. More specifically how much has changed since 1810. It's a pretty boring map until you get to somewhere around the 1950s.

I know that I bring up how much technology has changed our lives in the last 20 years but this is taking this to a whole new level.

Our phones have such an important role in our lives and it has become one of the most important inventions in history if you want my opinion on it. But back in a day when things were strickly done by telegraph and by snail mail, you had no choice but to be patient for things to arrive and to get information.

Yes, I am back with yet another photo from our friends from the Western History Center of Wyoming. I love whoever is running their Facebook page because they have no shortage of historic photos from our quaint little town throughout the years.

I love checking out these old photos from Casper and being in 2020 it really feels like 1961 was 100 years ago but it wasn't. And yet so much has changed as far as what our town looks like and especially our use of technology.
