50 STB - Everything is BIG Wyoming

Wyoming is one of the western states. I always thought the western states possessed rugged land and cowboy things. So today, we’re all channeling our inner cowboy/cowgirl. Morticia Wednesday Megan Rose wore her pink cowgirl hat. Reluctant Halloweenist had on a Stetson hat. Maid of the Mist Most Macabre was concerned that Wyoming didn’t have any 7-11’s so she stocked up on her Big Gulp as we passed through Minnesota.

On our way to Jackson Hole I made Maid of the Mist Most Macabre stop by Cheyenne (the capital of Wyoming) so I can stock up on my favorite coffee – “Warpath Coffee” WakeUpAndLive~gummy worms BOO loved it and bought a couple of cases for herself to ship over to Europe.



Once we made it to Jackson Hole we went to our hotel, The Rusty Parrot, and unloaded our stuff. A Warped Witch I Be booked us to take a horse ride and we headed out to the Bridger Teton National Forest. I’d never ridden a horse before so I was game. Horses are chill. I liked my horse. Morticia Wednesday Megan Rose was having too much petting all the horses she didn’t go horse back riding. AmyJo-Zombie hours made sure her $50.00 nalgene bottle was clipped to her leather belt with a massive carabiner. Let me tell you – everything in Wyoming was BIG. Spooky Kooky Krista her horse and wanted to take him home. Maid of the Mist Most Macabre Giant Phantom Jelly and WakeUpAndLive~gummy worms BOO skipped the horses and took a guided bus tour through Yellowstone. Can’t say I blame them. I hope they saw that massive geyser that likes to go off.

We visited the world’s finest wildlife museum. I mean it was alright. There were lots of taxidermy and it got old for me quick. Reluctant Halloweenist thought it was cool seeing all the stuffed animals. They had a pretty cool gift shop, though. Spooky Kooky Krista , A Warped Witch I Be and Maid of the Mist Most Macabre bought a couple of native American ponchos.

A Warped Witch I Be bought us all shots of tequila at the Million Dollar Cowboy bar. Let me tell you, that was a BIG shotglass. Everyone was smiles after that tequila. Next, we went to the rodeo. Morticia Wednesday Megan Rose kept yelling, “Buck him off!” It was wild times watching the cowboys ride those bulls. Reluctant Halloweenist channeled his inner cowboy with his leather boots, leather belt and silver belt buckle. He wore a leather vest over his flannel shirt and his Stetson. At one point all us cowgirls thought he was going to ride a bull, but I think the tequila wore off and he came to his senses.

After that rodeo, we had the munchies and went to the Mangy Moose for some late night yummies. I had the mangy moose burger. That thing was BIG. Reluctant Halloweenist had the Elk Stroganoff. Giant Phantom Jelly and WakeUpAndLive~gummy worms BOO had the fried green tomatos. They were HUGE. A Warped Witch I Be had the venison tenderloin and shared it with Spooky Kooky Krista and AmyJo-Zombie hours . Morticia Wednesday Megan Rose kept it safe and had the chicken with the Wyoming Chicken au jus. Maid of the Mist Most Macabre was hooked on the Idaho Fries which looked a lot like poutine.

Well, after all that fun we went back to the Rusty Parrot and passed out. One more trip to Washington DC and our summer travels will be over. I’ll be honest, I kinda got used to Maid of the Mist Most Macabre driving the Party Bus, Morticia Wednesday Megan Rose petting all the animals, Giant Phantom Jelly English accent, Reluctant Halloweenist taking us to great foodie places, AmyJo-Zombie hours high maintenance Nalgene bottle, Spooky Kooky Krista taking her Instagram pictures, WakeUpAndLive~gummy worms BOO ’s coffee, and A Warped Witch I Be organizing this whole adventure and herding us like cats. Only one more day to enjoy…
