Buffalo, WY—Bigger than it Appears

I had a change of travel plans due to weather problems in Denver which didn’t allow me to fly from Sheridan, WY. Oh for those new micro jets taxi systems that are on the drawing boards that would have allowed me to fly directly from Sheridan to Monroe, WI! Instead I had to drive 2 hours from Sheridan to Casper, WY; flew to Minneapolis; flew to Madison, WI; drove to Monroe. Total elapsed time was 12 hours compared to about 3 hours under the new system. I can’t wait!

One good thing that happened with the change of plans was that I got to drive thru Buffalo, WY one of the 397 agurbs® that I identified in the book. It is a quaint little town with a population of 3,600. However, it has the look and feel of a town two to three times that great. Buffalo has a great downtown with lots of local character. I hope to return someday.
