However you visit Wyoming, don’t leave it without a trip to Lusk, the town that recently gained fame in a series of adds by Microsoft touting its hometown appeal. As you’d imagine, the company moved on to newer focus groups but Lusk remains a quintessential Western town dependable for a rowdy rodeo and decent grub. Searching for a place to hang your newly purchased ten-gallon hat? You’d better stop right there, pard’ner, at the Covered Wagon Motel. Wired, friendly, and even boasting an indoor pool, the Covered Wagon is about the nicest motel you’ll find in these parts.
