CFD & Glendo

21 07 2019

We’re back to AB Camping in Cheyenne for the 123rd edition of Cheyenne Frontier Days.  As in years past we’re in the rear section in the first 3 sites of the west row.  The first two sites work perfect for face-to-face parking so that we can share a common area under our awnings.

AB Camping, Cheyenne, WY

We’ll upped the ante this year, with 6 concert performances planned!  Lady Antebellum/Kelsea Ballerini & Midland open the festivities on Friday followed by Rascal Flatts/Clint Black on Saturday and Josh Turner/Tanya Tucker on Sunday.  Then mid-week is Miranda Lambert/Randy Houser.  On Friday we’ll see Keith Urban/Walker Hayes and the final performance is Saturday with Tim McGraw/Devin Dawson.

CFD Concert Nights

Once again, CFD was awesome – we enjoyed all of the concerts and the familiar Buckin’ A Saloon.  We also attended the VIP Chuckwagon experience again this year – this time without the downpour and soggy shoes!  We’ll be back next year!

After 11 nights in Cheyenne – thanks again Mark & Jane! – we’re headed north to Lake Glendo.  It’s been several years since we were at Glendo and it was nice to get back.  We managed to capture our favorite cliff-side site in Two Moon campground.  We’ll spend 3 nights here and then 2 nights in Denver’s Chatfield State Park before heading home.

Glendo State Park to the Olympic Peninsula

Glendo, Custer Cove Site #3

We’ve just departed Lake Glendo, after a very enjoyable 4 nights in Custer Cove site #3.  Once again we managed prime lakeside sites #3 & #4 thanks to pre-scouting by Shawn and Dana.  The lake is a bit further down than last year when we were here about 2 weeks earlier. With daytime temps pushing in the mid-80’s, the water is quite refreshing.

Instead of heading back to Colorado, this is our first stop of a 30 night trip to the Olympic Peninsula in Washington state.  Tonight we’re headed to Rock Springs, WY.  More from there…

Two Moon #11

Two Moon #11

We’re camped in sites #10, 11, & 12 at Two Moon campground at Glendo State Park and decided to spend one extra night.  With daytime temps pushing 100, we pack up chairs and beverages and head out in search of shade, a breeze and easy water access.  Last month when we were here we found that Custer Cove was a great place to hang out under the tall cottonwood trees and with sandy beach access.  This time, we also check out some of the campsites.  Several of the Custer Cove campsites have good water views and access to what is today a very long beach (water level is only 25% of normal).  Sites #3 & 4 are nice deep back-in sites with good shade and tent spots.  Site #9 is a long level pull-through, but doesn’t have much shade.  Site #10 is a fairly level back-in site with better shade but does not offer lake views.  Site #7 would also be a good back-in site.

It’s mid-August and we’re enjoying time camping with friends and family at Glendo State Park in central Wyoming and Chatfield State Park just south of Denver
