You'd think that with my having the state quarters hanging up on my wall
and my seeing so many pictures of Chimney Rock that I would know this immediately... but I had a complete brain fart. I couldn't remember if it was Nebraska or Wyoming. Double Dip.

15K: I've been collecting the frigging quarters. Note "frigging" here. Because even though I know its not Wyoming (I recently collected my 5th & last Wyoming; its a guy on a bronco) & am pretty sure that Kansas has a schoolhouse or something like that, maybe a settler's cabin with a fence around it, & that Iowa has something similar I think, & that Nebraska did indeed have about its only rock formation on its quarter, I'm still too chicken not to double dip here.

It is a significant landmark on the Oregon Trail for those who happen to drive about on parts of the Oregon Trail as a form of amusement.
It so happens I am one of those people making this one pretty easy, with or without a quarter.
