Retro Roadtrip: Little American Hotel Resort in Cheyenne Wyoming

What we love about Mid-Century travel is feeling you’ve been thrown back in timelittleamerica6 to a period where motor travel was cool, lounging by the pool was the most fun you could have as a kid and Motels took guests seriously and didn’t just provide you with an impersonal place to sleep.

Little America in Cheyenne is just such a unique place. Luxurious, but a throw back to another time, with a decorating scheme in the French Provincial style, it’s timeless, but with that old classy motel air that makes it a pleasure to stay.

The grounds provide lovely views of the Wyoming prairie and are beautifully landscaped with flower gardens and the pool is fabulous with comfortable lunch chairs that made me crave that afternoon martini!

Our favorite amenities include:

  • Full-service restaurant
  • Lounge and gourmet coffee shop
  • 9-hole executive golf course
  • Over-sized, heated, outdoor pool
  • Fitness centerlittleamerica2
  • Room service
  • Gift shop
  • Kids’ playground
  • Wireless Internet – with a good connection!
  • Mini refrigerator in the room
  • Free HBO
  • Data port and High speed Internet access

It’s not “official” word, but John Hamm (who you would think would know) apparently let it slip during an interview that Mad Men will finally return in March – March 25th to be specific. Here’s another article as well. AMC is still declining to confirm the date at all. So, what do you think? Has it been to long? Would you watch no matter how long it took? Will it have to be an amazing

Wanna buy a hot dog? A Googie Classic!

With this posting on Facebook today from Sharon at 5280 Mod,  I was trying to figure out if I could make a living in food service – wouldn’t this be awesome? I’d love to own this and go to work in a hot dog every day – wouldn’t you? Sadly, the Coney Island has gone out of business in Bailey, but the dog is for sale for $500,000 – it can be moved! So, readers

Travel Route 66 – a handy companion for a trip down the “Mother Road”

Having used this book twice now on different trips along Route 66, I feel very slack in not writing a glowing review! Travel Route 66: a guide to the history, sights, and destinations along the main street of America is like having Jim Hinkley, the author, right in the car with you helping you decide where to turn off or what sites are the most important. Starting from Illinois and traveling with you along Route
