Getting a thrill of a lifetime were two US Veterans, Michael Tanner of Lander, Chaplain of the Lander American Legion Post 33 and and David Layman of Atlantic City (WY). The two Warbirds flew to Lander from the Teton Aviation Center Museum at Driggs, Idaho. The Kiwanis Club of Lander served a breakfast of ham and pancakes with hot coffee and juice for the big crowd while folks walked around the tarmac viewing a variety of aircraft, including two medical helicopters and two WWII Warbird S2 and many private planes and T6 Trackers from North American Aircraft Manufacture. The turnout was great for the return of an air show at Lander’s Hunt Field Airport dubbed Wings and Wheels on Saturday.

It runs on Thursdays through the summer.Īnother must! A huckleberry shake from the Victor Emporium. We love this event! The music is always awesome and it feels like a big family picnic. If you’re visiting during the summer, check out Music on Main in Victor which is just 8 miles away. We love their avocado toast and fresh baked goods. Rise Coffee is a must! They have an awesome outdoor patio/garden area to spread out, live music on Sunday mornings and the best coffee. So, so, good! Literally some of the best meals we have ever tasted.

Then we had to go to our other favorites! Forage Bistro and Lounge is on the very top of our list. We look forward to hanging out here again in 2021. Both were very good! We weren’t surprised since the owners are the same as Forage Bistro & Lounge. I tried this beautiful steak salad and Terry had the burger. Terry loved trying the different local brews and we both loved the atmosphere. There is also a very cool Warbird Airplane Museum to check out while you wait for your food and sip on a glass of wine.Īnother new one for us that Terry was super excited to check out (you know how he likes his local beer) was Citizen 33 Brewery.

#Warbirds driggs full
There is a full bakery in-house so the bagels are baked fresh every morning!Ī new one for us this time was the Warbirds Cafe at the the Driggs-Reed Memorial Airport. The building is historic and has been part of Main Street for over 100 years. My favorite is the veggie omelet with the addition of avocado.
