Surfing in Wyoming (in January?)

A lazy Sunday afternoon with too much time on the Internet sometimes reveals nice surprises.  I happened upon wyohistory.org a project of the Wyoming State Historical Society.

I read about the Johnson County War.  It was the baiss of the 1953 movie Shane, with Alan Ladd and Jean Arthur.
When one adopts a place as one’s home, there is always much to learn.  In my case I was also looking for more information on Harry Benham, who built our home.  No luck there, but the web site has a lot of neat stuff.  Check it out.

This house and its history, and the people who lived here (and in the neighborhood) are of great interest to us. If you have a story about the house or Sheridan's Residence Hill neighborhood, let us hear it!
