Catch the Night Shift!

On August 16th Barbara and Bob Townsend from the Miner’s Delight Inn in Atlantic City, Wyoming, will don their nineteenth century duds, load their wagon with whisky, and point the horses West to the Miners’ Exchange Saloon at the nearby South Pass City State Historic Site. The site is an authentic representation of the 1868 gold mining boom town, complete with the fully operational Carissa Gold Mill just outside of town. For the second time this year the site will offer lantern-lit tours of the mill.

When workers complete their night shift (tour) at the Carissa they’ll repair to the Miners’ Exchange Saloon, where Barbara and Bob will help them recover from their strenuous labors with three top-shelf single malt Scotch whiskies while their sidekick, John, tinkles the ivories on the saloon’s piano.

Tickets are available. For details visit the state historic site’s site:
