This summer we saw our share of emergency officials coming to fight fires.

We also worry about thermal nuclear devices and Yellowstone popping its cork.

We do have some tornadoes out here.

At least we don't have to worry about hurricanes way out in Colorado and Wyoming.

If this Kickstarter campaign works you'll be able to fight Mother Nature and more.

No, really, that's a thing. A disaster board game.

The game is based on real disasters and responses.

Based on a Real Disaster!
This map shows how the real-life Waldo Canyon Fire rapidly expanded across four days from June 23 - 26, 2012.

Emergency Operations Center is more than just a game, it brings the reality of disaster response right to your table.

Every element, from the roles you play to the scenarios you face, mirrors the challenges and complexities of real-world emergency management.

This Wyoming Store Has The Funniest Signs

This store has far too many signs to show them all to you.

You could spend a day there and not see them all.

There are also bumper stickers, hats, T-shirts, and so much more to make you smile and laugh.

You won't find this store where you would expect it to be.
