Once again we are camped on a state line ... front wheels in Wyoming and rear wheels in Colorado.
For two days we have been parked in the campground of a guest ranch near Cheyenne, Wyoming. It is a working ranch (since the 1800s) with 2800 acres of wind blown prairie and approximately 2500 head buffalo herd .... (of which 2000 head are being raised for meat sale). The restaurant here serves the typical menu only everything is buffalo meat instead of beef cattle.
We took a tourist train ride out thru the buffalo herd .... fun! They also keep a few other exotic animals around... yaks, camels, ostrich, and many, many prairie dogs.
They offer trail rides, etc. and it is a very beautiful place. The wind really blows here!
Tomorrow on the Ft. Laramie to learn about the frontier wagon trails and such.
Later,
Marilyn - for the Three Travelers
