Post subject:  Cossacks in Laramie, Wyoming!

I am certain that at sometime around 11:45pm last night as I was arriving into Laramie, WY, I saw a troop of Cossacks! At their command was a group of yaks that pushed my vehicle into a snowbank as I was travelling along at low speed.

Hmm, this makes me a primary source on Cossacks! [:D] Not only did I see them but I know that they exist and are some mean dudes! [:p]

Ok, just funning around. I am stuck (for the morning at least) in Laramie, WY. Here is a webcam view of the road heading out of town.

They are plowing the roads as I type but it may not be for some time that I can make my escape from the clutches of these Bug Cossacks. Or are they Siberian Cossacks! [:p]

Anyway, will not be back tonite at home I think. That is unless they open the roads before noon.

A quick followup on the Cossacks: they didn't open the road until 1:48pm and I am sure that it was punishment for me not accepting them as the meanest cavalry in Europe.

Anyway, I did get out of Laramie but now know that its often closed due to white out conditions either during the the Winter or Spring.

I am sure that it has something to do with the experimental Cossack laboratory just outside of town! [:D]
