Boiler room and smokestack. And, yes, the smokestack leans. Due to deterioration of the masonry and consistent strong west winds, the smokestack is 18 inches out of alignment. If the smoke stack continues to deteriorate, it will eventually fall. Thus there are efforts to preserve the smokestack while maintaining its historical value.

On the edge of Greybull, at a county airport, the Museum of Flight and Aerial Firefighting. They actually seemed to be sort of 'winging it", but did have some interesting aircraft that you get close to and even in. www.museumofflight.us

Greybull WY CONOCO history (#0597)
| |
|
|
On the edge of the BNSF yard in Greybull, WY, an older, metal, Continental Oil Company (Conoco) warehouse. The CONOCO triangle on the sign was used from 1930 to 1970; based on the building's appearance, I'd guess that it dates back to the earlier years of that range.
Worland WY politics (#0598)

|
|
On the side of a facility of Black Hills Bentonite in Worland, WY, a sign with a bald eagle and the slogan "As Regulations Grow, Freedoms Die" -- I'll leave the commenting on the sentiment to the comments. Bentonite is an absorbent mined in that area of Wyoming and is primarily used in drilling mud but also for other sources including cat litter.
