Garryowen is such an interesting name, and I know I have heard it before. But where?
Maybe a TV actor?
Maybe a high school classmate?
So, I googled. And I found out that Garry Owen was the unofficial marching song of the Seventh Cavalry led by General Custer. The website I went to had the song playing, and it's a song that everyone knows. I'll hum it for you..............................
Did you recognize it?
Well, I spent the day in Garryowen, MT, just about ten miles from Custer's Last Stand. I walked to the top of the hill in this RV Park and could see where the battle took place. The valley is beautifully green with rolling hills around it.
Tomorrow, I leave Montana and head south into Wyoming. I plan on traveling just a short distance and then staying near Casper, WY. Suzy is ready for traveling again. (Suzy is my greyhound.) She definitely likes to travel in the truck. She has a nice plush bed on the back bench all to herself. She bounds in and lies down before I can even get around to the driver's side!
Looks like a good day for traveling tomorrow.
Ya'll take care, Suzanne
