We left Thermopolis this morning and drove to Cody, WY which took about 2 hours. We checked with the Irma Hotel to see if they had a room for us because we were a day early and they did. But tomorrow we will need to move to the room we will have for the next 2 days. Then we walked around town and ended up at La Comida for lunch. After that we went back to the Irma to check in because they don’t allow check ins before 3pm. Then we went to the Silver Dollar Bar which is historic and we met a nice couple originally from Canada but were fulltime RVers now. At 6pm, Marci picked us up for dinner and took us to Cassie’s where her husband Mitch met us after work. The prime rib practically melted in our mouths! After dinner we drove around the town and saw how beautiful the area was. We saw deer and rabbits along the roads right into town. On Saturday we will spend the day at their cabin in the Beartooth Mountains.
What I Learned Today:
· Cody is a bigger town than Thermopolis.
· The Irma Hotel is on the national register of historic places and every evening the have a “gunfight” show in the street.
· Buffalo Bill built the Irma Hotel.
· Cassie’s was originally a house of ill repute in the days of Buffalo Bill.

The "Whoa" yarn store looked enticing!
And I assume the log cabin bus is no longer for sale...Didn't you two buy it?
