Wyoming

September 7, 2018

My parents built a house in Northern Wyoming about fifteen years ago.  I have not visited as often as I would like, but am heading there in about a week!

Sheridan sits at the top of Wyoming, about two hours south of Billings, Montana.

The gorgeous Bighorn Mountains are Sheridan’s backdrop, as far as the eye can see.

My brother and his wife are visiting too, so cheers to a mini family reunion!

Long walks every day are on the agenda.

It is going to be a busy six days.

 The Wagon Box Inn, Frackelton’s and the Powder Horn are great places for dinner.  The BEST place to get coffee and a delicious meal after yoga is the Red Velvet Cafe.  So cute!

Shopping was on the agenda too.

King’s Saddlery for pretty much everything one would need in the west.

Built in 1907, the historic Mint Bar is a must see!

There are fun Wyoming side trips.  Cody is two hours away, Jackson six hours.  Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park too.

The scenery is the main attraction.

Sam Morton wrote a great book about this part of Wyoming titled, “Where the Rivers Run North.”  There is a wonderful movie about the real horse whisperer from this area called BUCK ~ you can find it on Netflix.  So worth it.

SO jealous you will be in beautiful Wyoming! As one of the lucky visitors to your parents’ stunning house I know just how fabulous it will be. Miss Sheridan (and also Red Lodge, Montana, where my parents later moved). Have a wonderful time! xxx

I have loved design ever since I painted my bedroom walls high-gloss lime green in the fourth grade. A lifelong hobby, mixing low cost items with a few pricier pieces thrown in, has become The Wry Home. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t!
