Our Epic Northwestern Journey – Part 29 – The Way To Wyoming

We are now in the last phases of our epic Northwestern journey. Wyoming was our last state before coming home. We drove down from Harding, heading towards Casper, for one more night’s stay on the road.

On the way to Casper, we stopped in Sheridan. Larry’s boss grew up there and said there is an ice cream stand that he had to try. We attempted it, but there was a big bike rally taking place, and the line for the ice cream stand was way to long. We did stop for pictures though, proving we did at least make the attempt to go there. 🙂 Dennis and Larry both LOVE their ice cream.

We did get to see the river and the pretty flowers though before hitting the road once again. I really like Sheridan a lot.

Once again, there were so many beautiful irises all over.

We didn’t stay in Sheridan too long before hitting the road once again.

We made it to Casper, checked in to our hotel for the night, then went looking for something to eat. Once again, Dennis was in the mood for Thai, so that’s what we ate.

We thought it was kind of strange that they had a Christmas tree up in June, so we asked about it. They said they keep it up all year and decorate it for each season. OK. Whatever floats your boat, right?!

Everything was good, but I think I made the best choice. I went with another curry. I LOVE curries.

After we ate, we took in some of the Casper sights before heading back to our hotel for another round or two of games.

Wyoming is definitely part of the wild, wild west. I love how so many of the old buildings and statues detail the Wyoming way of life.

This way of life has been the Wyoming way since the beginning. Not much has changed from the early days to the present either. This is just their way of life. Always has been and I think always will be. Don’t fix it if it ain’t broke, right?!

Have a great day and make everyday great. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.

    1. I always have fun, no matter where I go. 🙂 Our epic journey is almost done. Only a couple more post about it. Then … back to food. I’ve been busy cooking since we’ve been back too. But sometimes it’s fun to take a break from the norm and do something a little different. 🙂

  3. You made me chuckle regarding the Christmas tree all year round and whatever floats your boat.
    While I get that it’s tedious and takes time to decorate for Christmas, I think it cheapens the Holiday a lot (whether you’re Christian or not). It seems like the Thai people just use the tree as any decoration vehicle. Since Christmas doesn’t mean anything to them, they could care less about using it ‘correctly.’
