Today, the National Trust for Historic Preservation named Sheridan, Wyoming, one of its 2011 Dozen Distinctive Destinations!
Sheridan, nominated by Sheridan Travel and Tourism, was selected for its vibrant Main Street commercial district, abundant recreational opportunities, and its authentic Western character, all set "in the shadow of the Big Horns."
The Sheridan Area Tourism Celebration will be held at the Historic Sheridan Inn on Friday, February 18th, 4-7 pm. From February 15 to March 15, Sheridan will be participating in a public online voting contest to select the 2011 Dozen Distinctive Destinations "Fan Favorite" . . . Visit
www.PreservationNation.org/ddd/vote For 11 years the National Trust for Historic Preservation has annually selected communities across America that offer cultural and recreational experiences different from those found at the typical vacation destination. From dynamic downtowns and stunning architecture to cultural diversity and a commitment to historic preservation, sustainability and revitalization, the selected destinations boast a richness of character and exude an authentic sense of place.
"Sheridan is a classic Western town, offering visitors a real taste of its ranching, farming and mining heritage, as well as contemporary theater, arts and dining opportunities," said Stephanie Meeks, president of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. "Outdoor enthusiasts, history buffs and shoppers alike will be amazed by Sheridan's amenities, including hiking, hunting and fishing; archeological sites and public art; and top-notch purveyors of Western art and apparel."

Deluxe suites at the Temptation Resort & Spa Cancun Mexico will go a long way as it recounts to vacationers being proficient to fruitfully enjoy timeshare there. To enjoy your timeshare at the Temptation Resort Spa Cancun, you have to list and accentuate all of the things within your suite that formulate your stay at this resort such a delight. Activities run day and night, with silly games, evening shows and an organized one way shuttle to a different nightclub every night. The genuine friendliness of the staff here is legendary.
Bill, love ya, but I have to go with Chapel Hill, NC. It's all about education, baby, and a lively progressive cultural scene.

Hey I understand Older_Wiser, but I was just promoting my hometown here.
I truly wish we were a lively progressive cultural scene, but we are not. That is the only down-side of Sheridan, we are a socially backward looking state, which touts it libertarian heritage and current philosophy, except when they feel government should infringe on one's (Woman's) personal life. It is a real misogynist and sexist viewpoint. But it is real. It's a shame that the anti-intellectual social Darwinismist are the policy and law-makers for this state. That is the only down-side of Wyoming.
Thanks for the comment.
Oh, My freshman year in college I was in a school in NC right down the road, so to speak from UNC- Chapel Hill in Winston-Salem, a little known University called Wake Forest. I did love the the area, especially heading into western NC.
I worked in Sheridan back in '82 building the NERCO Bldg. There were 3 of us that our company ( Johnson Acoustics )in Portland Or sent down to do the job with the rest of the workers we hired being locals. I loved my short time there and will never forget the locals' hospitality along with the rich Native American history. After finishing the project and shortly after I returned to Portland I relocated to Anchorage Alaska and have been here ever since....Rick
