No giving machines in Wyoming.  The closest to me are in Denver 8 hours away.

But Wyoming does have lots of goats.  If you want to send a goat to  needy Wyoming family,

Send to.  Johnb ? this week in Mormons.  Does your Patreon account have a don’t a goat option?

No more pigs please. ! Too traumatic!?

Local food bank.  The local Methodist Church operates a Food Bank in Lovell.  Compared to the 8 local wards my Methodist friends are few in number.  Recently my wife reminded the SP that our stake committed years ago to have one ward a month provide food for the food bank.  Has been a great success and also reminded LDS to donate $$$ which allows them to buy fresh fruits and vegetables and meat.

 

I asked ChatGPT what would be some possible names for a podcast with a person from Idaho named Hales and another from Wyoming named Bernhisel:  Some of the best:

 

Sagebrush squad

 

Tuber team

 

Mission field Companions

 

Teton Two

 

Snake River Bandits

 

Others sheep

 

Yellowstone posse

 

Yellowstone Desperados
