Wednesday in Wyoming - October 25, 2023

 

scarecrows, Children's Village
If you have vegetables, you need scarecrows, especially at this time of the year, and so the Children's Village at the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens has its share of scarecrows. 

I don't know whether they kept the crows away, but both children and adults came to admire them.

birdbath, Cheyenne Botanic Gardens
Who would have thought that flower petals falling into a birdbath would create such beauty? 

As you may have guessed, this picture was taken at the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens.

Children's Village dome, Cheyenne Botanic Gardens
The dome at the Children's Village (part of the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens) is beautiful at any time, but a bright blue sky and vibrantly colored flowers add to its appeal and make it a must-see.

Cheyenne Botanic Gardens

 If you're looking for beautiful autumnal foliage and flowers in southeastern Wyoming, there's no better place than the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens. This is one of my favorite places in the city and one of the reasons my husband and I chose to move to this part of Wyoming.

"Fallen City"

 Can you guess why this is called the Fallen City?

I hope you've enjoyed this month's posts featuring the Big Horn mountains and that you'll come back next month for glimpses into another part of Wyoming.

Heart Mountain

 The scene appears peaceful, doesn't it? But during World War II, Heart Mountain was home to an internment camp for American citizens of Japanese descent.

Medicine Wheel
Whether you call it the Medicine Wheel or, as Native Americans do, The Place Where the Eagle Lands, if you visit this site in the Big Horn Mountains, you'll discover that it's one that will linger  in your memory.
