"
Lake said he started pacing his family home just outside of Cheyenne, his heart racing.

Then he wept.

"I don't guess men are supposed to do that," he said. "But it's great. It's news that, you know — I guess I look at it as, there are some good things that happen in the world."

The missionary's intense period of travel and reflection is paused for a crucial "story time"—an elaboration of a significant past event. I will integrate this narrative into the flowing report, ensuring the account is clear and respects the requested pseudonyms.


πŸ“– The Missionary's Story: The Magazine, The Mailbox, and The Miscarriage of Justice

The missionary took a necessary pause in the travel log on Thursday, September 16th, 2021, to record a story of a difficult family event that left lasting, negative implications, emphasizing the importance of truth and reputation.

The Incident in Jackson Hole (Circa 1990s)

During a summer stay at the PG's House in Jackson Hole, the missionary was asked by Aunt Mary to pick up the mail from the Post Office Box, as delivery was not made to the house. Among the collected items was, embarrassingly, a "girlie magazine" addressed to Cousin Tom.

Caption: A Spiritual Stewardship

The missionary, reflecting on personal Christian values—specifically the need to "avoid sins of the flesh"—took it upon Himself to hide the magazine from Tom, operating under the assumption that Tom might not notice or remember its expected arrival.

However, the assumed secret was quickly shattered. Later that same afternoon, the missionary heard a heated argument downstairs involving Cousin Tom, the special needs cousin Arnold, and Aunt Mary, all focused on the missing magazine. The missionary was the only one who had picked up the mail, making His involvement clear.

The central, troubling question for the missionary was, "WHY would they know it's coming that exact day, that's the question."

The missionary retrieved the magazine, which had not yet been discarded, and presented it. The missionary recalled that no explanation was given, and no preaching was done ("although I probably should have"). The missionary simply handed it over and walked away, and the immediate confrontation ended.

The False Narrative and Lasting Harm

The true harm from the incident arose from gossip. The missionary infers that Arnold (or perhaps Aunt Mary), whom the missionary felt "has always really hated me," began gossiping to the Beatrice & Lonny family (Uncle Warnock's brother and sister-in-law).

Caption: The Poison of Gossip

The core lie was a false narration implying that the missionary had taken the magazine for "His own self-gratification" rather than the true, Christian-motivated reason for taking it away to prevent sin. The missionary noted that this was impossible, as "By that time in life I was long past any kind of adolescent behavior such that kind implied by this incident."

The missionary was "never given a chance to explain," and the impact on reputation was immediate and severe. Beatrice's opinion of the missionary "dropped precipitously," to the point where "She wouldn't even talk to me."

The Missionary's Conclusion: A Setup?

The evidence—that the family knew the magazine was arriving that exact day and noticed its specific absence—led the missionary to a strong inference:

Blockquote:

"The fact that they knew the magazine was coming that day & noticed it missing actually led me to believe that this was a setup to see if I would take it so they could actually create a false narration that I had taken it for my own self-gratification even though that was NOT the truth. That was the only time Aunt Mary ever asked me to pick up the mail for them as well, before or after. So I just wanted to lay that out there and let people decide for themselves."


Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour: I am the LORD. - Leviticus 19:16 (King James Version).

Modern-Day Example of Talebearing:

This verse condemns gossip and the spread of damaging stories, or talebearing, among the people of God.

The modern-day example is the devastating effect of the false narrative spread by the gossip after the magazine incident. The missionary's Christian-motivated act of stewardship was twisted into a claim of personal vice, permanently damaging the missionary's reputation with Beatrice. This illustrates how talebearing, even if subtly done or falsely implied, stands against the "blood of thy neighbour" by attacking their good name and virtue, causing emotional and relational harm, just as it did decades ago in the family setting.

"When and Where To Hear Wolves Howling in Yellowstone  | Cowboy State Daily

https://cowboystatedaily.com/2025/06/02/when-and-where-to-hear-wolves-howling-in-yellowstone/ 

"
Crabtree said wolves are crepuscular, which means they're most active at dawn and dusk. Higher activity means a higher chance of howling.

"When they're active at dawn and dusk, there's an increase in howling," he said. "During the day, when it's warm, they're sleeping and aren't going to vocalize." 
For the most part, wolves will howl just about any time they feel like it, but when they're raising and moving pups around, there's less howling," Camenzind said."

In March 2023, Wyoming Gov.

The "Life is a Human Right Act" prohibits all abortion in the state, with few exceptions. Both were supposed to go into effect immediately, but pro-abortion plaintiffs sued."

Why are the Chinese breaking toilet seats at Yellowstone

"In 2015, a dozen of the 42 vault toilet seats in Grand Teton were broken. In addition, used toilet paper was often left discarded on many restroom floors instead of being flushed or dropped into the toilet bowl.

It took a while, but park authorities finally figured out what was happening when they began finding shoe prints on toilet seats.

Chinese tourists, for the most part, were responsible. They do their business squatting, so they'd stand on the seats to squat and break them. Also, sewer systems in China are not equipped to handle bulk like toilet paper so the Chinese are adverse to flushing TP.."

response to article in Cowboy State Daily

Re story about "Californian in Mini" causing problems in snow on I-80 . The problem I have is pigeon-holing people according to their current "legal residence".

 Many of us were born & raised in 1 place, college elsewhere, temporarily reside here & there, etc. a person with a CA plate could actually by a Wyoming person who for whatever reason has CA residence, or dual residence, etc. by referring to a person as a Californian or Montanan or whatever, is reductionist for the sake of dumbing us all down & even sometimes harmful prejudice. 

Our modern world is much more complex & intricate than it was decades ago when people who were born somewhere stayed there forever. How about "fellow American" ?
