You guys have been (and live) all around the West, so what's your opinion—What is the most-cowboy town in the West? Where do people walk into restaurants with spurs and every truck have a dog riding shotgun? What U.S. town lives and breathes cowboy culture more than any other? PLEASE state your reasons. (We're compiling ideas for the next issue.) Thanks!

It is a dream of mine to move back out West after being here on the East Coast for the last 28 years. Was born in Cheyenne, WY, and have always wanted to go back to live. Been back a couple of times to visit and fall more in love each time.

Which is your favorite? Comment below.

As I sit here on a chilly Virginia evening admiring my Christmas tree, it brought me back to the days in Dillon, Montana growing up and going out with the whole family to cut down the "perfect" tree. That term "perfect" is said with tongue in cheek. At times it looked a lot like the Charlie Brown Christmas tree.

When you're out at the local honky tonk, what type of dancing do you do mostly?

Thought this would be a fun topic to get a conversation started. What are your favorite places to visit in the West and why? Also, what historical Western locales do you find most interesting?
