My trip to WY
« on: August 26, 2007, 03:08:38 PM »
Well I just got back home from my little trip to WY.

I took a week off from work and headed down to check out the State. This was my first trip to the great state of WY. And I must say I was not disappointed. Checked out Cheyenne, Casper, Cody, and Jackson Hole. Beautiful landscapes, friendly people, great gun laws, and plenty of job opportunities in several police forces (my preference for a career). The highlight had to be the Cody Firearm museum. I spent at least 7 hours in it one day, and about 4 hours the next day in the other connected museums. That place is one of the coolest places I have ever been to. It was nice to be able to exercise my right to bear arms too. My Colt Commander never left my side.  :)
Needless to say, after visiting the State, it is even more appealing to me. I now have to decide if I will follow my career aspirations as a peace officer up here in Canada, or down in WY. Tough decision. Hopefully I'll have an answer in a few weeks.

You didn't stop in and visit anybody? What a shame! Glad you had a good time, though. Maybe we'll see you next year at the Jam.

Glad you could make the trip!  Pretty good circuit for a week!

Thumbs up on that museum!  What a place!  Certainly multiple visits are called for. :) 

One question, HOW did you get away with OC in the museum? :o  The fact that they do not allow firearms in the museum has always rubbed me wrong.

I couldn't stop and say hi to anyone cause I was to busy. Next time I head down there, I'll have to give myself a lot more time. It was a great trip, just too rushed.

As for packing, I simply carried concealed most of the time. I know, I know, I should stand up for our rights and open carry, but since it was my first time in WY, I was a little unsure how the general population would handle it. And since I have a CCW permit I figured it couldn't hurt. Next time though I'll probably OC.

The Cody and Cheyenne PD were sure tempting. I'm considering dropping my RCMP application and heading down there. Who knows...
