Chamberlin Inn Cody

... pre cambian rock that was over 2.5 billion years old. <br>One word of caution when signs say loose livestock, believe them. Leaving the mountain, cows were unfenced and crossing the road. Our day was slowing to a crawl as we reached Cody, WY. Due to weather and possible road closures we decided to call it a day and found an amazing steakhouse. Great way to ...

... monument due to the calcite and gypsum deposits which make the caves glitter. The tour started with an elevator ride down 250ft underground, where there were no bats to worry about. The size of the caves was pretty amazing especially since they believe they have only explored 3% of the actual cave. After coming back up to the surface we headed over to Custer State Park in western South Dakota and spent our first rainy night camping. <br><br ...

... lower back which is tight and tickles the horse making it buck.  This is the first thing the  wranglers remove when they have taken the cowboy off the horse.  The cowboy has to hold his hand in the air when he is being bucked so he does not touch the horse (all information ascertained by our neighbours in the audience.  <br><br>All the cowboys &#8211; regardless of age and there were some rugged looks &#8211; are all fit.  Slim, trim and fit and ...

... like a family run RV site beautifully named &#8220;Ponderrosa&#8221; who were all really enthusiastic about Cody and helpful on what we should do that Labour Day weekend. <br><br>Now for those who do not know, Cody is where our dear friend Buffallo (or Bison for those who have been following our blogg) Bill lived whose really name was William Cody. It is a real cowboy town and that&#8217;s what we wanted. <br><br>Our first port of call was to The Old Trail Town, which ...

... to sit the wind out (which lasted the rest of the evening &#8211; so strongly that I asked Jim if we were safe in our small trailer!). By the next morning, everything was fine, but that evening the wind came roaring through again. Luckily, we had figured out that Wind River came by its name honestly and we hadn&#8217;t set up anything outside again. We are educable! <br><br> <br><br>While we were at Wind River Canyon, we ...

... springs so I stopped at the hot springs for an hour or two and just relaxed in the pools. There are couple of different pools available and each one is a different temperature. <br><br>By the time I arrived in Cody it was early evening so I went for a couple of beers at a nearby bar and then went for dinner in an italian restaurant, which was really good. I was expecting tomorrow to be a long day in Yellowstone so I made sure I wasnt out too late this time.

... Buffalo Bill..?). It was freezing that Sandie had to buy some winter PJ's (adorned with local mooses) and some gloves.....Cody don't sell gloves now do they. Our accomodation was a lot of fun as it was a log cabin (with central heating). Dinner at the local Holiday Inn was cut short as a Buffalo Bill look-a-like was doing the rounds of the restaurant.

... with rocking chairs. Everyone gathered there all times of day and rocked and looked out on the view. If my photographer can get the pictures on, you will see the view where we spent time every evening. I have to tell you about the food because I am a little bit of a food snob. No more. We ate in the cafeteria every day, morning &amp; night. I ate turkey with mashed potatoes &amp; gravy with ...

... to the extent that there is no cell phone service in the whole park area, no internet access, no TV, no shower in our room, and no air conditioning. Even outside of our hotel, there was only one building we visited that had any air conditioning at all and it was inefficient. As a tourist, we can expect to encounter different circumstances than we are used to when we travel. We did, however, express to several of the clerks and employees we encountered our concern about ...
