Drove to Wyoming, Minnesota yesterday. We were speculating on why it was called Wyoming. Maybe people were headed to Wyoming and only made it this far? Maybe they came from Wyoming and missed it. Turns out it was originally named after the Wyoming Valley in Pennsylvania. This Minnesota town has a population of about 7,800. Its claim to fame is The Barker-Karpis gang kidnapped William Hamm of Hamm’s Brewery and released him in Wyoming in June 1933.

They do have some beautiful woods…

Happy Fall!
