Yee-Haw!
Wednesday September 22nd we arrived to Sheridan, Wyoming on our Land That We Love Tour. We drove 370 miles which took us approximately 5-1/2 hours. We stopped in Billings, Montana on the way to Sheridan to top off our gas at Costco. We paid $3.049 per gallon. When we arrived in Sheridan we did a little shopping along the main drag before we checked into our hotel and found a spot for dinner.
We ended up taking a recommendation to eat at the Wyoming Rib & Chop House. We paid more here, $63.77, than the service we received but it was the sign of the times with establishments not being able to keep full staffing. This is also a chain of restaurants in Montana and Wyoming and other states. We tried to stay away from chains when we could.
Watch out, Dear!
Our son has traveled to Sheridan for a Rodeo in the past. Some historical information can be found here.
We stayed at a Fairfield by Marriott at the AAA rate of $156. With the added taxes the total came to $176.28.
In the morning on day three of our trip before we moved along to South Dakota we shopped at Shipton’s Big R Sheridan and found boots for Dear and little JJ.
Hello,
Sounds like a fun visit and stop. The statues and murals are beautiful. Gas prices have been going up lately.
Take care, enjoy the rest of your week!
…what a wonderful find this place is!
I am enjoying your Land That We Love Tour!
This lack of help is getting to be most annoying and in some cases downright dangerous. It will be interesting to follow along and see what each stop has to offer. I think chains do so well because they usually have a standard. An independent restaurant often provides an iffy experience, especially in these days of not enough adequate help.
Vee, it really is hit and miss these days.
We stopped in Billings years ago on a cross-country trip. You’ve captured it beautifully and love those boots!
Thank you for the photos. My husband and I love road trips. I hope we can get to Wyoming some day.
Sharon, Wyoming has such a great variety to offer. At the end of our road trip we ended up in Wyoming again in Cheyenne overnight.
Interesting and fun looking place. Like all the statues
Gas was expensive there.
