Cody, Wyoming Labor Day 08
Staying an extra day in Cody to rest up and see some local sights.
Past noon drove out to Buffalo Bill state park for a picnic samich. This is Buffalo Bill country. Later on if there's enough time today will stop at the Buffalo Bill Historical center.
But for now this is a beautiful lake / reservoir with the Absoroka mountains on the northwest side of the lake.
Continued down Hwy 291, a designated scenic byway, for about 30 miles. Beautiful Wyoming ranch / farm country. and came to the real -- Castle Rock.
This is a dead end canyon so head back to Cody. Was a good afternoon drive.
On a recommendation of a local inquiry, stayed at the Skyline motel; very good! Clean, well kept, low rates ~$55, close to downtown, and the owner, Roger... looks like Buffalo Bill -- spitin' image no joke. ... and a nice guy.
