Well, it is time to leave the Deadwood/Lead area.........but, don't worry. We are coming back at the end of the month. You see, Mona talked to Papa Joe, the owner of the resort, about workkamping there next year. Papa Joe said that would be fine, but he could really use help this year during the Bike rally. It seems that they have a huge following at the resort during the Stugis Bike Rally weeks. Mona decided it would be a good way of making some money in tips, plus an hourly wage and free rent for the month, we decided that it was too good to pass up. So, we will be going back there for the month of August. You can make those kind of decisions being gypsies of the road. ;-)
So saying goodbye to the area, we headed south to Cheyenne, Wyoming for the Cheyenne Frontier Days Festival from July 20-29. We arrived at our campsite at T-Joe's RV Park, just east of Cheyenne. The price was good, less than $300 for the month. It is a perfect distance of 5 miles from town and the only drawback is being on the frontage road of I-80. Other than that it is still pretty quiet and we have full hookups.
We checked out the area and went to take a trolley tour which costs $10 per person, but I found a coupon online to get two for one. The trolley tour takes about an hour and the driver was very knowledgeable of the area.
The picture to the left is of the Railroad Depot and Museum. It is pretty neat and the restaurant attached to it has some really good beef bbq brisket. All the eats around here are somewhat expensive but then it is a tourist type environment.
