What we found was quite the surprise! The visitors center was so nice! Not only did it have the typical brochures and books of places to see and things to do, but it also had a walk through history of Wyoming! This included a lot of informational push button displays, art installations, an unearthed dinosaur skeleton AND a jail cell with an escape hatch that led to a slide! The kids LOVED it and it made learning about Wyoming fun! Apparently they learned how to escape jail. 🙂 They were mesmerized by the giant bone structure! They were very excited to see a checkers game! They love to play checkers and tic-tac-toe! Owen and Grant were reading every sign in the visitors center and telling me the details about what they learned about Wyoming and where they wanted to visit! We are only in Cheyenne, Wyoming for a very short period of time so while we were at the visitors center we created a “Cheyenne Bucket List” of things we want to do before we leave here! Our Bucket list: Cheyenne Botanic Gardens Cheyenne Street Railway Trolley Wyoming State Capitol/State Museum  Big Boy Steam Engine Terry Bison Ranch Cheyenne Depot/Depot Museum Cheyenne Big Boots Cheyenne Old West Museum Has YOUR family been to one or more of these places? Let us know what you thought of it!

We wanted to stop by the Duck Commander in West Monroe, Louisiana. We pulled in around dark and stayed the night at a campground 5 miles from Duck Dynasty Duck Commander headquarters! We got up in the morning and went and had breakfast and on to the Duck Commander warehouse! The Duckmen weren’t there as it was the season premier of Duck Dynasty season 4 and the whole family was in New York! I was a little sad because I had my heart set on meeting Si! 🙂 There wasn’t really much to the “tour”. There was really just a souvenir shop, the trailer and the “Duck commander, Buck commander” sign. That was it! Oh, and the worlds largest duck call was displayed in the lobby! We took some pictures, bought some shirts and went back to the RV to pack up and head north to Wyoming!
