We started at Fort Laramie, which I realized is mentioned in the Yellowstone 1883 series. 

Then we headed to Agate Fossil Beds National Monument, did the 1 mile hike and saw some amazing fossils. 

Chased down a waterfall, visited @themammothsite then was chased by a storm, saw some bison roaming free at @windcavenps and finished the night off with an Old Fashioned in Casper, ND. 

At the end of the day, I have been to 4 states, 1 National Park, 1 Historic Site, 1 Historic Monument, and saw bison, waterfalls, and a crazy storm.

Grab your favorite boxed wine and check out the Bo Grab your favorite boxed wine and check out the Boxxle.

The Boxxle is a Premium Boxed Wine Dispenser that holds a 3-liter bag-in-a-box wine, which is the same as 4 bottles of wine, or 20 glasses of wine and is a great value because it pours wine for as little as $1 a glass.

The Boxxle will keep your wine fresh for several weeks so you can enjoy a glass of wine without worrying about spoilage.

The Boxxle is also great for the environment because the Boxxle packaging produces less than half the carbon footprint of glass wine bottles.

I had a 2 hour full body scrub, massage, and hot stone treatment followed by a pedicure. The mimosas kept coming and the stress was gone. It was amazing, relaxing, and absolutely needed. 

Then we headed to @legacyfoodhall for lunch. There were so many restaurants to choose from, and of course I got sushi. The live music and outdoor seating was great.
