About Allan and Cher Maybee, proprietors of Barn Anew
Allan and Cher retired from teaching in the spring of 2008, after 35 years in
education. Allan received the Wyoming Social Studies Teacher of the year in
1990. Both Allan and Cher are noted historians, who have not only studied the
trail systems across America, but have followed them on horseback, canoe, and
jet ski. They have ridden 2000 miles across the entire length of the Oregon
Trail on Arabian horses, and 1,200 miles following the Santa Fe Trail. Allan has
also ridden 500 miles from Fort Laramie to For Bridger. Ask Allan about his
other adventures. He recreated the trek of General William Ashley, fur trader,
3,000 miles in a canoe and on horseback from Utah to St. Louis. The Lewis and
Clark trail was his latest adventure, when he set a 6,000 mile world record
riding a jet ski from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean, via the
Mississippi, Missouri, Snake, and Columbia Rivers.
