Our last night and day in Cody, Wyoming

After our great ride to the East entrance of Yellowstone we decided a nice meal was needed. We ate at the Irma Hotel that was built in 1902 by Buffalo Bill and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service.  The hotel has a cherrywood bar, one of the most photographed features in Cody. There was even a cowboy with a gun sitting at the bar during our dinner. We walked around downtown after our meal and came upon the biggest rifle I have ever seen.



On Sunday we decided to drive over to Greybull and some other towns in the area. One of the towns, Emblem has a population of 10, can you imagine that? We got near Greybull when we came upon an airport with a lot of old planes. We later find out that it was once the "Museum of Flight and Aerial Firefighting."   My Dad would have loved this place.
