Great country. And the fishing is great. I've always thought about buying a small ranch in MT, but since I started visiting in WY, I've considered there as well. |

Yeah, it didn't take us long to decide on Wyoming. Apart from the wind - it is beautiful country. We, too, had thought about Montana but seems as though Californians have found out about Montana and are moving there in droves..... |

Thanks! Yeah throat and neck cancer. 2019 was a real hoot for me. Chemo and radiation. I was out of touch with the world for most of the year. There were days that I wanted to check out, but my wonderful Wife kept me on an even keel. Then 2020 hit......what a mess...now, 2021, I get a case of shingles. On the right side of my face and in the outer parts of my right eye. Good news, however, is is treatable; but damn! Do NOT HESITATE to get a shingles vaccination!!! This shit is painful. Unfortunately I had no idea that my shingles vaccination was killed off with the cancer treatment.......
Hey..life goes on. |

There is nothing between me and 20 miles of nothing. Not even a tree. Wind blew 40-65 for like 36 straight hours and calmed down last night. It’s way better in town but yeah, out in the country, yeah I know about wind. |

Our ranch is North and West of Cheyenne about 30 miles (hell, there isn't a town anywhere near us) and we chose that for a reason. We drive about 35 miles to get groceries, so we stay fairly well stocked up. When we aren't there, our Son and his family are. He takes care of the place (livestock) and when we head out there, he comes back to Kansas. That's where we are now - preparing to make the big move out there. Putting the houses here on the market, etc. I have to admit that I'm a little torn about the move - hell I love living here near KC, but the times, they are a changing my friend....... |

Yep....I'll never forget when my Wife and I were researching Wyoming. We were ups in the very north east part on the east of the Thunder Basin - and the wind was so damned bad - it literally blew my truck (a RAM 1500) off the road. Scared the hell out of us - but we had a laugh about it. |

At the end of his introduction he gave his reasoning for still being around- "God didn't want me because I am too damn ornery and the Devil don't want me because he fears competition". You are in my prayers Flagg. Last edited by Shiver Me Timbers; 01-16-2021 at 04:12 PM.. |

Was it 7-8 years ago we had 80-100 mph sustained non-tornado winds? Flipped every sprinkler that wasn't aligned around here. When people want to argue about wind, I just pull out the stats. End of conversation. It's not anything to be proud about, either. I ****ing HATE the wind. |
