Cheyenne WY
















Today we went into Cheyenne to check the place out. This was a neat sign that we saw. Here is the building that it was sitting on the side of. There are alot of huge cowboy boots around the town. It is the same kind of idea as all the colorful cows that were around the streets of Calgary! Some of them are shown here.


















Most of the houses here are made of brick of various colors. The think that amazed me was that they all have lawn space, not all crowded together like around Calgary!


We went to visit the Western Museum that tells the story of the Cheyenne Rodeo throughtout the years. There were alot of old wagons that are in very good condition. Wayne liked the one that was used to deliver oil, kerosene and axel grease!





That was interesting and actually is very similar to the Calgary Stampede. One of the big differences is they had cowboys that would come all the way from Hawaii to compete for the prizes.
