RV travels around the USA

The Devils Tower Wyoming was only a three day stop for us, because the tower is literally all there was to see. But what a sight it is. Kind of hard to believe when you look at it. Nothing else like it in the world. When driving in and top a hill and there it is! Awesome…
The small town of Sheridan Wyoming really surprised us in how well preserved it is and how many businesses are located in the historic downtown area. It appears to be thriving! The old building architecture is beautiful, the town has several murals painted, and they have bronze sculptures everywhere downtown! It was a fun and interesting four days…
This may be the first time that I have had a had a three part blog update for one location. But, we were in Cody Wyoming for two weeks and there is so much to see and do. We really enjoyed our stay and the whole mountain state tour. So, without further ado, here is the final installment!
We just finished our two week stay in Cody, Wyoming and boy was it packed with activities! Cody is a charming little western town and the home of Buffalo Bill Cody and a nightly rodeo during the summer months. It is also next door to Yellowstone National Park. We were quite busy plus a visit from our son Bryan. So, grab your favorite beverage and sit back to enjoy a perhaps longish recap!
In the past two and a half years, I have plotted our RV routes on mainly interstate highways. They are faster, usually have many convenient places to stop, do not have low underpasses, and the grades are very mild. In Wyoming, most all the north-south routes are two-lane byways. So, by necessity we have ventured off the super slabs onto the back roads!
Grand Tetons, Jackson Wy & An ATV Adventure! We finally made it to our westernmost location on our 2019 summer schedule! The tiny mountain town of Alpine that is located just south of the Grand Teton National Park. Pat had one main goal for our summer schedule and that was to get back to the Teton Mountains again. We made it!

On The Road to Alpine Wyoming! This segment of our summer travels should be another highlight for sure. Pat has wanted to get back to the Teton Mountains since we first saw them in 1979 – 40 years ago! We had just been married a few years and we were both working full-time and I was attending college classes in the evenings. This was my first real vacation and it was surely needed. I used my entire annual two weeks of vacation for this trip! But, it was worth it! The Tetons are sure a magnificent sight!
This post wraps up our weeklong stay at the Wyoming capital city of Cheyenne! There were so many sights and pictures that I had to break it up over two posts. Hope you enjoy!
Pat and I begin our 6-week tour of Wyoming in the capital city of Cheyenne, Wyoming! This is another new state for us and is number 28 for us to have spent at least one night in the RV since we started just over two years ago. We spent a week in this historic city and had a great time absorbing all that we could before moving on. Our commute from Fort Collins, Co to Cheyenne was a nice short 45 minute drive with no complications!
Wyoming, Here We Come! Another new state for us in the RV! We will end up spending about six weeks traveling the state, so hope to get a good feel for the landscape, activities, people and the culture. Wyoming is a large state geographically (at #10), but is dead last in population. That sounds like many small towns and that is what we like. The Cowboy State has vast treeless plains, the Rocky Mountains, and the national parks of Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons.
