Good morning, Laramie.

Macradee Aegerter, a Laramie resident who began thrifting vintage clothing in high school, now earns more from her upcycled clothing business than from her old retail job — she sells her unique finds online and at local pop-ups as interest in vintage styles grows.

Her passion for durable, quality garments has turned her side hustle into a thriving business.

Older Wyoming hunters say the hunt is much harder today because online rules, limited private land access and the rise of ATVs are crowding public areas; veteran hunters recall a simpler past when tags were bought at local stores (a method long gone).

Many believe these changes challenge traditional hunting practices and the way of life they once knew.

Columnist Bill Sniffin said Wyoming should honor the Oregon Trail with a big monument because the trail was key to the nation’s westward move—he explained that state law stops presidents from quickly designating new monuments and noted historic sites like Fort Laramie as proof of our pioneer past. He urged readers to consider this idea to celebrate Wyoming’s heritage.

WyoTech’s automotive tech graduates are drawing high-paying job offers across the country and will graduate in two weeks—some accepting roles in Texas, Michigan, or Cheyenne while others plan to return home.

Graduates like Ethan Arganbright and Chance Wellborn are set to boost their careers with efficient work incentives and further training.

During a 31-7 win over UNI, starting quarterback Kaden Anderson suffered an upper-body injury late in the third quarter and was taken to Ivinson Memorial Hospital for further testing.

Backup Landon Sims entered the game and led three second-half drives, and coach Jay Sawvel said he has full confidence in Sims—who completed 3 passes and rushed for 16 yards—and he hopes Anderson recovers soon.
