Wyoming, Kind Of...

On Wednesday the 26th we headed out to drive the 287 miles to Wyoming. Unfortunately, it wasn't really a stop for sightseeing or touristy type things. We stayed in Ranchester, WY because it was a good midway point and there was an RV park with full hookups. The Lazy R Campground wasn't anything to write home about, but I was able to get caught up on laundry and we had nice neighbors.

At least I got a picture of the sign!
There wasn't a grocery store, but the main street did have THREE taxidermy shops. Because, you know ... actually I have no idea why that would be necessary. The only 'point of interest' there was the Connor Battlefield.

Conner Battlefield Memorial
It was a nice little park on the river and we actually walked there a number of times. The story behind it is somewhat grim though. It's basically a memorial to the place where an entire Native American village was attacked and burned.

The Bison Conqueror
In good news, we added another state!

5 down!

For perspective - these maps show how far we've driven and how far is left to make to the Fulltime Families rally in Branson, MO:

We've come so far
But there's so very much further to go
