Wyoming

After departing Denver in the afternoon we made it to Cheyenne WY and pulled into the Famcamp on FE Warren AFB just on the edge of town. FE Warren is one of our bases that still maintain ICBM's on alert.

The Famcamp is a nice spot with a creek running through it. However, the creek was overflowing its banks and was causing some concern for BJ, but she got over it when she saw all the birds around the creek!

Another interesting thing about the wildlife is the pronghorn antelopes.  WY has about 45% of all these animals that live in the western US and it seems many of those like FE Warren.  They apparently knew they were safe there.  It was fun watching them chase each other across the vase open areas on the base.  Then they would lay down and rest, frequently just a few feet off the road!

The antelopes planning there next play date!

Creeks arising!

We did continue our tradition of trying to visit the State Capital whenever we were near. So we spent much of a day in Cheyenne, the State Capital of WY.  Beautiful Capital building with a gold dome.  Info inside says that is only one ounce of gold covering the entire dome!

Beautiful Capital Building inside and out!

In front of the State Museum!

We left Cheyenne  moving on north. Spent the next night in Sheridan WY.  Really enjoyed a great meal at the Ribs & Chop House there. The RV park owner recommended it. While my Baby Back Ribs were very good, BJ's New Orleans Jambalaya was fantastic in size and flavor.  She, of course took a doggy bag home with what she could not eat and we both a great lunch the next day finishing it off.
 
Always at home, no matter where we are!!
