" Hey Babe, I've been to Cheyenne!"



Funny story. (Or at least to me)

On our trek out to Ohio one of our stops was in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
When Jason and I were first dating one day I told him that I had been to Cheyenne. We were driving in the car on the freeway and I saw a sign that said "Cheyenne exit".  This is what prompted me to tell him this way cool fact about me. "Hey babe, I've been to Cheyenne!" Jason looked at me with a very strange look on his face and said "you have? why???" (him rightfully thinking why would anybody ever go there?) I then explained to him very matter-of-factly that I had been there several times with my family, "we drive through there every year on our way to Bear Lake." He then looked at me with a big grin "Oh really? Don't you mean Evanston??"

"Oh"
'"Yes, I mean Evanston"

Cool fact: Evanston is 318 miles away from Cheyenne, I guess I was just a little off.

Since that day every time we see those signs on the freeway that say Cheyenne exit, we say to each other "Hey babe, I've been to Cheyenne!".............But now we really have!




Not sure why all the country songs mention Cheyenne in them. I was not impressed with this little town, kinda pathetic.  So if this town is on your Bucket list of places to visit you might wanna re route and just go to Evanston, trust me, it's much closer.
