Mary Ann taking a picture for the journal. |
This boot is one of about 200 painted by various artists and groups (one was by middle schoolers) and are spread throughout the city. They have some interesting motifs. One has all the names of the governors. Another, examples of license plates through the years. This one has the elusive (to us) pronghorn on the front and a big trout on the back.
I took this photo because the window was just so pretty. It was on a building built in Cheyenne's early days that now houses a western museum.
We had a nice lunch in a small "health food" type place. We asked the city information receptionist where we bought the tickets for the tour where we could find a good restaurant. When we told her we were vegetarians she just shook her head. Cheyenne is not a town that you will find a vegetarian restaurant or non-meat meals on the menus. Cattle country, I guess!! She was kind enough to direct us to where we were able to get a vegetarian lunch and then said "if we wanted a good vegetarian meal, we should go to Laramie!!!"
My theory about the dog and leaving her on non-travel days? Well, she debunked that theory today! She managed to get her paws between the edge of the screen protector and the screen and tore a hole in the "pet" screen. It now has duct tape covering the hole until we can find a way to cover the opening between the screen and the grate that's a little more classy than duct tape. This is becoming a source of frustration for Rog.
Tomorrow we are due in Aurora, CO, which is a suburb southeast of Denver. We will be having dinner with an old friend and we are looking forward to it. We haven't seen him in two years (since the last time we came through visiting our daughter).
