Below: It did not cost for Lee and Karen Duquette to explore inside
the Wyoming State Capitol Building. As of this date, it is the 4th State
Capital Building and Grounds they have explored. Besides the floors
and the ceilings, the walls were also outstandingly amazingly decorated.

The
next day, July 1, 2025, Lee Duquette did not feel very well and did not
wish to explore Cheyenne. However, after trying to rest for several hours
in the hotel room, he finally told Karen Duquette to call 911 and she
did. The fire truck and paramedics were there quickly and Karen showed
them to the hotel room. But soon they called an ambulance to take Lee
to the hospital. Karen followed the ambulance because she was not sure
of where the hospital was located. The Paramedics were knowledgeable about
their job and very kind to Karen.
Eventually, the Emergency Room said Lee needed to be admitted into the
hospital. This was basically the end of their vacation, although they
obviously could not just go home anytime soon. Karen stayed with Lee all
day, every day and late into the evening, then she went back to the hotel
at night and returned as soon as she could each and every day. She then
called their daughter, Renee to inform her of the sitiuation.
