Rawlins, Wyoming

As promised I said I would get pictures of our "shoe box" for everyone to see. Right now Cole is working for NAES Power rebuilding a substation in Sinclair. It's about 6 miles from Rawlins. So far Rawlins has been a pretty interesting place to live. The closest shopping is about 2 hours any direction. So far we have ventured to Casper, Cheyenne, and Rock Springs in search of "supplies". The one thing that we both really like about Rawlins though is the wildlife. You can see deer wandering the streets and there are antelope everywhere. Not in town so much, but all along the freeway.

Our "pet" deer. This doe hangs out in our yard and we see her almost every day.

Cheyenne Frontier Days

We decided since we didn't know anything about the area around Rawlins that we would head to Cheyenne for the weekend and go to the rodeo. I have got to tell you this was the funnest rodeo I have ever been to. Between the Navy Leap Frogs (parachuters) and the constant changing of events and entertainment, you didn't have time to get bored. The rodeo was about 4 hours long, but you wouldn't have known it. It was soo much fun we are definitely going to go again.
