Driving through southwestern Wyoming we found the
Chugwater Soda Fountain in Chugwater, Wyoming. It is one of a handful of buildings and claims to be the oldest soda fountain in Wyoming. Great homemade milkshakes there! Chugwater is also known for its chili. This cafe serves bowls of steaming chili. I settled for taking home a packet of their chili seasoning which includes a recipe for making the chili.
The Chugwater Chili Corp. will ship all kinds of chili items.
The Wyoming countryside changes around every turn from grasslands with mountains in the distance to spectacular rock formations.
Mammoth Site in Hot Springs, SD is an indoor working palentological site where more than 61 mammoths have been unearthed.
Many cultures used the bones of the mammoths to create their homes.
You can walk inside, this is a view from inside looking out the door.
The Colombia Mammoth was larger than the wooly mammoth. This replica was on exhibit at the visitor's center.
In Hill City, SD
John Lopez created a sculpture of a horse using all kinds of metal objects.
Majestic, just like his live friends who can be seen all over South Dakota.
Maybe tomorrow we will see some buffalo!
