Day 13: Sightseeing and Shopping in Wyoming

Day 13: May 28, 2013.  Peter D’s RV Park, Sheridan, Wyoming

We took care of a few housekeeping things before going sightseeing in downtown Sheridan. Henry climbed up on the roof of the RV to check on the hail damage. There was a hole in the living room vent cover which he patched with duct tape. You can fix anything with either duct tape or WD40, right?

Once that chore was completed we hit Main Street in Sheridan for a little shopping. We browsed a few shops with everything from shoes to western wear. One shop displayed spurs, cowboy hats, saddles, and cowboy boots of every color and style.

A stop at Safeway for a few supplies and we were back at the campground. Later in the day we returned to town to do a little sightseeing at the historic Sheridan Inn. The Inn is now closed so we could only explore outside and peek in the windows. Buffalo Bill Cody made the inn his home whenever he was in Sheridan and was part owner from 1894 to 1902. The inn is located across the street from the train station.

We enjoyed a locally brewed amber ale from the Blacktooth Brewing Company with our dinner of baby back ribs at the Wyoming Rib and Chop House.

  1. Hi, too bad about the hail. glad you could fix it with that miracle tape. Have you been to devil’s tower
    in Wyoming? It might be hard to get the RV in there, not sure though. So much to do, though.
    Have fun!

    1. Angie, we camped at the KOA just outside the entrance of the Devil’s Tower National Monument in 2006. We could see the tower from our campsite. Loved it there.

  2. Great photos Beth and I love how they are arranged. Too bad the Sheridan Hotel was closed… It’s a neat building and it looks like it’s in good shape.
