I had to head back to Laramie a day early and wanted to start early in the day. I figured if I got back at a decent time I’d be able to get some rest and have a little time to decompress. I had no plans to stop at Factory Butte. After all, we had [...]

OK, I admit it, and have all along. I am obsessive when it comes to finding a good foto of a particular location. Regular readers will remember seeing several images of Factory Butte. You will also remember I said I’d continue to photograph it until I got it right. Here are two more images. Each [...]
