Meriden Rest Area

What a gem! This is a great stop that is very well kept, clean and nicely taken care of by the state of Wyoming. The drinking fountains are the only thing closed.

It is built very solar friendly according to the picture that I got from the wall inside. I was able to park around on the west side near the exit, which gave me a stand of pine trees big enough to stop the winds that are blowing today. 

I think I will sit here for a couple hours and just enjoy the peacefulness and the sound of the breeze in the trees.

The only stop from Custer State Park in SD on the way to Cheyenne....and it’s closed.  Not well planned for weary travelers. 

Very quiet, restrooms. Enough room for RVs .. hardly any trucks!! Water available also..
