A few of you may be wondering what I look like now that I am 16 weeks pregnant. Well the answer is not that much different than I used to look!
Maybe if I take a picture every week I will see a difference!

Crime in the Big City...and Rainbows
I stumbled upon something amazing yesterday as I was reading through the "Sublette Examiner", our local newspaper. Every week there is a Sherriff's Report where they tell you how many calls were made to the Sheriffs office within the last week and then they list some of the highlights. Here are a few of my favorites (I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried):
On August 17th a 1:48pm, a caller reported seeing a woman hitchhiking who was six or seven months pregnant. The call was turned over to the Wyoming Highway Patrol as deputies were busy with other calls.
On August 18th at 10:41am, a caller reported two springing spaniels running loose by his house and if someone didn't do something about them, he would.
On August 19th at 2:09pm, Ridley's (the local store) reported a female shoplifter; deputies responded and the woman paid up. (Good to know the only thing you have to do if caught shoplifting here is pay)
On August 21st at 4:34pm, a caller reported a motionless person lying in a sleeping bag near the Sugar Shack and she couldn't tell if he was dead or asleep. Deputies learned he was napping.
Those were my favorites! And, if you are arrested for anything here they put your name in the paper so I will have to keep that in mind to avoid embarrassment.
And for people who hate reading, here are some pictures of the double rainbow that happened the other morning.
It was right across the street so I couldn't get the whole thing on our camera.
Thankfully, I found a whole picture someone else took of it from Pinedale Online.
Publicly, I just took pictures with my camera. But privately, I had a reaction like this:

This is not about Wyoming...it's about Vermont
So naturally, for my first blog post on this Wyoming blog I am going to write about our trip to Vermont.
Mickey and I took a week long trip to Vermont for Steve and Lauren's wedding/vacation/anniversary trip/babymoon. Right before we went we bought this new fancy camera and then proceeded to not really take that many pictures while we were there, but I am going to share what we've got! (Because we all know no one goes to a blog to read stuff, it's just all for the pictures)
We stayed at the Sterling Ridge Resort in Jeffersonville, VT which is a tiny town close to Stowe. We would highly recommend this place to anyone!
Here's the cute little cabin we stayed in:
And here was the view looking out from the cabin:
Here's the pond by the front entrance where you could sit or fish!
We went to the Ben and Jerry's factory to take a tour. Our first stop there was the Flavor Graveyard, where discontinued flavors go to die.
Do you think they really store that stuff in those? Who knows?
We couldn't take pictures inside the factory so that's really the only ones I have from here. The best part of the day was when we ate ice cream. I got Jimmy Fallon's Late Night Snack which is "vanilla bean ice cream with a salty caramel swirl and fudge covered potato chip clusters." It was pretty much every pregnant woman's dream.
We did some hiking around Vermont which was very fun! To get to the hiking we had to drive through Smuggler's Notch which is a very narrow road through the mountains. We heard all about this cool gondola ride you could do to the top of a mountain where you could get out a hike around. Well, when we got there it wasn't open yet so we chose to do the Scenic Toll Road instead. You drove yourself to the summit ridge of Mount Mansfield and from there you could hike around. The drive was really nice and I am glad we did it! Once we made it to the top we go out and hiked a few miles further up the mountain. It was a pretty foggy day so the views weren't that great but it was fun anyways. We heard that on a clear day you can see to Canada!
Here I am sitting on some rock thing I can't remember the name of.
And here's Mickey towards the end of our hike. See how foggy it is!
Here's a foggy view looking down!
One night we (but really just Mickey) built a campfire and made s'mores which was really fun and yummy!
I warned you we didn't take many pictures! We also went to a cider mill, took a kayak trip, did more hiking, ate a lot of great food (and Vermont Maple Syrup!), went to a beautiful wedding, spent the day at a lake house and Mickey did the alpine slides.
That's all I've got for now....Hang in there, I promise the next post will be about Wyoming!
