    Almost didn't go to see this because of time but so glad we did. It was amazing as well as a great history lesson. I enjoyed seeing where the different cowboy styles originated. Bucket list must do!

    Spectacular museum, give yourself at least 2 hours to tour it all! Captures the spirit, history, and romanticism of the American West. Yeehaw!

    Check out Prosperity Junction! It transports you to an early 1900s Western cattle town at dusk. Sounds, replicas, & ambiance = super cool. (But since it was dark, this pic is the museum entryway.)

    Really great museums. Paintings of western life, Native American life, rodeo exhibits, cowboy exhibits, Native American exhibits, and a walk through Western town. I was very impressed.

    Chicken Salad at Dining on Persimmon Hill is a-mazing! Be sure to keep an eye out for Tuesdays at Sundown and stop by the Dickinson Research Center for more info about museum and Western history.

    Did you know? “The End of the Trail” was created for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco. Due to World War I, it could not be cast in bronze, and was nearly thrown away. Read more

    Not a bad way to spend a couple hours taking in local (and not-so-local) history. Check Groupon and AAA discounts.

    I enjoyed the varied exhibits--from the current Prix de West art, the fabulous sculptures and paintings, to the western performers' area and the re-creation of an old western town. Read more

    Ronald Reagan may be known as a two-term President and former movie star, but on July 21, 1989, he added one more accomplishment as he was inducted into the Cowboy Hall of Fame here.
