It's Off to Sheridan

There is a nice town east of here, through the Bighorn mountains, called Sheridan. It is a western town with lots of history and is about a 2 1/2 hour drive from Cody. That's our destination for today. We will leave as close to 9:30 as possible and plan to spend the entire day traveling there and back. The description of the town is below:

"WELCOME. Here in Wyoming, it's more than just a word. It's the sincerity of a smile, the friendliness behind a simple "Howdy," and the authentic real West charm of Sheridan,Wyoming.
Sheridan is one of Wyoming's jewels, where fabled Western history and dramatic mountain vistas meet New West comfort and the serenity of wide open spaces. Enjoy a frontier spirit that values friendship - and independence."

Sounds like a place anybody would love to go, right?  We'll let you know how it goes, and hopefully we'll get some good pictures along the way.

We will pack a lunch and probably stop at one of the "vistas" to enjoy. The weather is questionable at the moment, but I saw a forecast that promises sunny skies and highs in the low 80's at Sheridan.

Tomorrow will be our "housekeeping day" where we will do the cleaning and consolidating of our basement and miscellaneous stuff that is in the back seat of the truck. We also had the Jeep serviced yesterday, so it is ready for the long trip back east in early October. The truck still needs to be serviced but we will have that done in a couple weeks, just before we leave.

Off to Sheridan...
