Hi Folks,
Well, let me tell you a little story. Back in 1987, just after my lovely wife Judy and I tied the knot, we stumbled upon a charming old house in Loudonville. This place, built way back in 1896, had been left to languish for years, but we rolled up our sleeves and got to work, breathing new life into it. It became not just our cozy home, but also a hub for the Arts in our community.

While portions of the route had been used by explorers and trappers since the 1820s, the Overland Trail was most heavily used in the 1860s as a route alternative to the Oregon, California, and Mormon trails through central Wyoming. The Overland Trail was famously used…
