Rosie begins her journey through Wyoming!
Old Antique Store, Hulett, Wyoming
Home of Devil's Tower, proclaims this small town's website. Perhaps that's why they have the spooky memorabilia right out front? Just look at all dem dry bones forming a somewhat gruesome arch framing the store sign! Dare we peek inside the 1880 Jail? Never mind skeletons in the cupboard, who knows what skeletons may be lurking inside the olde-time calaboose! Hulett (named after the first family to settle there in 1881) nestles in a valley surrounded by beautiful red rimrock with the Belle Fourche River flowing through it. Hulett has a population of just over 400 people.

@ Wyoming State Fair

Purple Flower Power Egg
My pets are in awe of these beautiful eggs—they would love to try to paint their own one year. Easter and spring are times of joy as the earth awakens, plants are pushing forth from the soil, and the days are becoming warmer. Many baby animals are born in the spring, and life is burgeoning. May these eggs bring you joy and be a reminder of the earth renewing itself.

Wyoming State Fair
This had its inaugural event in Douglas, Wyoming in 1905. Just picture the folks strolling from place to place, picking up a hot dog here, cotton candy there.

@ Geyser, Wyoming
Old Faithful is one of the most popular attractions in Yellowstone. This natural marvel earned its name in 1870 when explorers noticed that it erupted "faithfully" at regular intervals. On average, the geyser erupts every 90 minutes, but that can range between 50 and 127 minutes. The eruptions last up to five minutes each, blowing upwards of 8400 gallons of hot water into the air.

@ Devil's Tower, Wyoming
Buffalo Bill is a legendary figure of the American West. Since there are so many stories about his escapades, it's easy to overlook the fact that he was a real person. The gunslinger wasn't just a showman, he was also a businessman. Once he'd earned success, he moved to Wyoming to set up the Shoshone Land and Irrigation Company. His company brought water to over 60,000 acres of the state.

Deemed sacred by the Northern Plains, this was the USA’s very first national monument! Also known as Bears Lodge, this iconic tower is considered sacred by many of the Northern Plains Indian tribes. To this day, some tribes continue to hold sacred ceremonies and sun dances at the tower. You can admire the colourful prayer cloths tied to the trees nearby the Devils Tower.

A Union Pacific train speeds across a Wyoming prairie pulling cars loaded with coal. From the time it started in Omaha, where Union Pacific laid its first rails in 1865, a hundred years later Union Pacific had risen to become the largest domestic railroad in the United States. In such a large country as the US, fast and efficient transportation over thousands of miles of commodities such as coal, automobiles, foods, forest and agricultural products and chemicals is essential.

Scenes that you walked in during the day suddenly quieten, become darker and glow; clouds waft in warm tones of yellow and pink; silhouettes spring to life. To do justice to a Wyoming sunrise, you will be in situ an hour beforehand to get your camera set up and ready to take some beautiful shots!

Rosie has now completed her journey through Wyoming! As she prepares to go home, she receives a wonderful gift!
Old Train Wagon And Coyote
Yeehaw! Howdy partner. Hop on up here and grab a seat. As soon as this here wagon is hitched up to the engine, we will be ready to roll. A piece of advice for you; make sure to hang onto the sides when we head ‘round a corner, and you might want to keep your mouth closed when we get going; the wind in these parts whips up the dirt, and it gets in your teeth.

Geyser in Steam, Wyoming
Geysers are hot springs with constrictions in their route, which causes them periodically to erupt as a pressure-releasing mechanism. Yellowstone’s geysers are mighty impressive in the few minutes they spend in eruption!
Rosie has enjoyed her journey through Wyoming, but it is time to go home now! Please select another pet as visitor, so it can also enjoy a journey through the American Frontier!
