We got to experience one of the better Pizza Ranch restaurant today in Casper, Wyoming. We visited a few in Iowa several years back We also checked out the one in Billings, Montana about 5 years ago when my Dad passed away.
I think my favorite is the one in Casper partly because it has a nice game room. I do not recall if the one in billings did or not but the ones in Iowa definitely did not have games rooms and they were a lot smaller place.
Their basic idea is an all-you-can-eat buffet that includes pizza, fried chicken with side items, salad, and dessert. What’s not to love?

Garden Creek Falls is gorgeous waterfall at the base of Casper Mountain.
We enjoyed it because you can walk right up to it and get in the water that is falling. Watch the video to see what Dad did.

We were visiting family in Casper, Wyoming and decided to try this Mexican restaurant. It was near closing time and my nephew was delayed coming from the airport. The staff was very accommodating as he got the right at closing time.
We still had a great meal and enjoyed ourselves without feeling rushed. The food was pretty good and the serving sizes were a nice size compared to the price.
We would be pleased to visit Guadalajara Mexican Restaurant again the next time we are in Casper, Wyoming.

Dad’s cousin, Paul, took us out on his boat and we had a great time. We give you a look at both ends of the canyon and tell you a horrific story from many years ago.

King’s Fish Market is in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan not too far from the bridge that takes you to the lower half of Michigan.
The staff was friendly and they had a lot of cool stuff. We bought a few different cheeses and they were delicious. However, the food that we ate there left a lot to be desired. We will not be eating here again.

We have been to Medicine Lodge Archaeological Site many times since we have family in the area.
The trails down through the canyons are amazing whether you are walking or riding an ATV like we usually do here. The scenery is gorgeous all around. The is no cell service in the Archaeological Site or campground.
However, you can can a faint signal about a quarter mile outside of the gates. People refer to this spot as cell phone hill.
Only 5 of the campsites are reservable and the rest are first come first served. No amenities at the sites but water is available.

Paint Rock Lakes were one of my Dad’s favorite places and I had never been (at least not that I can remember).
The lakes are at a super high elevation and you can hear that in the video when I am trying to breath. This hike was not that long but we are not used to the elevation.
Lower Paint Rock Lake is out in the open in a field while Upper Paint Rock Lake is nestled in the trees and rocks. Can you guess which one we prefer?
