Mon Sep 19 - From Sheridan Lake South Dakota to Sheridan City Wyoming - both named after Civil War General Sheridan

Mon Sep 19 Day 21 clear & sunny, warm; hot, 26 C, in Sheridan then sprinkles & high wind in eve which abated later in the eve.
We pulled out of Sheridan Lake camp site at 144547 @ 10:00. We did a gas stop @ 144679, 12:00 – 12:10. We pulled into a rest area for lunch @ 12:45 – 1:30, Sheila took over driving. At 3:00 we changed drivers again and into Peter D’s RV Park @ 3:55 @ 144945. We got set up, then into town for some groceries, a Wal-Mart stop to get Sheila’s glasses fixed from the Gutzon Borglum Historical Centre wall crash incident. The campground recommended the Wyoming Rib & Chop House so we forced ourselves to go. We walk in to discover Monday is all you can eat ribs night. A half order is $12.00 full rack is $18.00, the all you can eat is $22.00 & includes a salad & a side order from a choice of about 8. I managed a rack & and a half & the side was sautéed garlic mushrooms & were delicious. Sheila had a pulled pork sandwich & the house special margarita, $5.00 as we were in before 6PM, and she couldn’t quite finish it, it was about 22 ounces containing 3 ounces of tequila. She did it justice though. We also couldn’t resist trying the “Fried Green Tomatoes” appetiser, green tomatoes deep fried southern style on lettuce with crab meat and adab of bluecheese dressing – delicious. We waddled back to the RV and Sheila got to watch Dancing with the Stars then we saw the season premier of Castle.

We Drove 398 km, 247 miles – Sheila drove 1½ hours
