For my nephew, Barry Schulenberg, 2025 has been a busy year. He spent part of the Summer building a tall carport to house his camper trailer. he did a great job and feels good knowing that it will be protected from the elements, especially if we should get a hailstorm here. Next summer, he plans to enclose the sides and back for better protection. Barry and his wife, Kelli have a place east of Casper and they have fixed it up really nice. They have a large incinerator type outdoor stove that hold enough wood to heat the house for days. They also burn our junk mail, along with their own, something we appreciate very much. While it’s not a normal function of a wood stove, it saves us from having to cover the addresses on mail we are getting rid of.
Barry, a supervisor for the Highway Department in Natrona County, is committed to keeping the highways safe
for everyone who travels on them, and he does an outstanding job. At home, Barry is also a hard worker and prepares for Winter all Summer. He has been cutting wood all summer and has quite a wood pile going. It will easily take care of those cold Wyoming Winter nights. Barry and Kelli love living out in the country where they can get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. They share their home with their dog, Scout, and they are very happy there, but they also love going camping, hiking, bicycling, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. They also love to travel and go to concerts.
One of the highlights of the summer was Barry and Kelli’s hiking trip to Devil’s Tower and northeastern Wyoming. With five scenic trails near the tower, they were able to see stunning views in and around the tower, as well as exploring other trails throughout the region during their vacation. The area around Sundance was 
especially beautiful, and their photos captured its charm perfectly. There is just something about being out in the woods, where it’s peaceful and quiet, that really puts life into perspective. One of the coolest parts of their trip took them to Wyoming’s far northeastern corner, where three states meet. While you can drive close to the spot, making it not really a hike, it’s still worth visiting. Standing at the exact point where three borders converge cool. Their love of hiking has shown them some beautiful places over the years. Today in Barry’s birthday. Happy birthday Barry! Have a great day! We love you!
