Day Three Hundred and Fifteen: Sheridan, Wyoming


Oh, lord, Wyoming.
My mother’s side of the family is from Wyoming.
I haven’t visited Wyoming as often as I have visited Spokane, but I’ve been out there several times for either work or for fun. The fishing is great.


Sheridan is the town my mother is from. It is exactly three exits on the highway and if you blink you will miss it. I’m exaggerating a little bit (not much) but it is actually a pretty big Wyoming town. It’s very homey. It is also home to the King’s Ranch Saddle Company. For those of you who don’t know, Kings is to Saddles what Rolex is to watches. People from all over the world come to Sheridan for the saddles and the ropes that they make there.
That is about the only claim to fame that they have. It is still a very beautiful town in a beautiful part of our country.

Challenge to my Readers:

Small towns have their own charm. Just be careful when you visit; these aren’t tourist traps, they’re someone’s home. No pictures, please.
