DAY 24 - LYMAN RODEO

If you are a Lyman, there is a certain self-indulgent joy of coming across entire towns that are your namesake.  Lyman, Maine has always been a favorite stop of mine, despite its meager size.  Lyman, Wyoming has just become my new favorite Lyman.

Gus and I stopped on to check out the sites in Lyman and happened across a hitchin post.

Gus got pretty riled up at the opportunity to show off, and so we took a moment to get ready...

...and then impressed the crowds by taking first place in the Buckin' Shusky competition.

Gus finished off his trip to Lyman, like any good champion of the rodeo does.  With a good ole American hot-dog or two.
