Day #12, Cheyenne Wy to Denver Co

Wednesday Oct 21, 2009 - We drove from Cheyenne to Denver via Nebraska. Nina wanted to go to Nebraska so we could count an additional state visited. This added 100 miles to the trip but we got to see the "Our Lady of Peace" statue.
The many states we visited today are shown below. Out of Wy into Ne out of Ne into Wy out of Wy into Co. Wow, that's a lot of states in one day.

The "Our lady of Peace" statue is over 5 stories tall and has 14 smaller statues located around it showing Christ's story. It was located in Pine Bluffs Wy. This is a very small town located about 50 miles east of Cheyenne.

Then we got to Denver Co. We drove around for a while. We had a chance to see down town Denver and then we found the Bronco's Stadium. Nina did found one lighthouse in Denver. Why Denver needs a lighthouse know one will ever know.

Who needs expensive cruises and tours when all of these cool sights are right in our own back yard. Thanks for sharing your trip--it's ALMOST as good as being there.

This is alot of States - especailly since you are doing it in the West. We have an easier time in the East hitting that many states.
