Visitors to Wyoming shouldn't miss the Carbon County Museum. It's a pleasant family stop with plenty of exhibits. The most popular exhibit is that of Big Nose George, a bandit and murderer who was lynched in Rawlins. The most appealing part of the exhibit consists of several interesting items made from Big Nose George.

This is a fascinating article, but there is some whining.

Interesting article.

It reminded me of this quote.

"Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you." - Friedrich Nietzsche
