Goff Creek Lodge Resort 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 ...

... reach Shoshone National Forest, which Theodore Roosevelt called the "most scenic 50 miles in America", an assertion with which we agreed with Teddy wholeheartedly. We camped near a beautiful creek that led up to red sand buttes and made our first attempt at cooking with Lou and Teresa's backpacking stove, consisting of a four prong pot holder sitting on top of a small propane canister. We were quite successful at making Uncle Ben's Spanish rice :).

... 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 ...

... What a start to a great day.<br><br>A sad moment was saying farewell to Grandma and Grandpa who were heading into California. We had had a fantastic time with them in Yellowstone and having new people into our group was great fun (and meant Ian and I had other people to talk too). <br><br>Our first stop was to the Visitor&#8217;s Centre at Fishing Bridge to see whether Lily, Fynn and Edie qualified as Junior Rangers. They had all worked really hard all week filling out ...

Encore une journée de route, à découvrir les merveilles environnantes; et il n'en manque pas, la route pour Yellowstone est simplement superbe, entourée de montagnes, de forêts et de rivières; on passe du printemps à l'hiver, pour revenir en été subitement!<br>Deux belles rencontres, Ed et son "Dis &amp; Dat", un magasin de bibelots et vieilleries invraisemblables, qui ne voulais plus ...

... 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.

... Lo and behold, they were good! they are sliced about 1/8" thick, breaded and fried, and they look kinda like a pig's ear (not on Bubba's menu, however). Sandra, ever the culinary coward, passed on the delicacy. After the gay bar abd the buffalo burger, she was not feeling adventurous. Tomorrow it's Yellowstone. I hope Yogi is not hibernating yet. The camping store across the street has a sign advertizing "Bear Spray". Is that to make them smell better?

From tent to tent cabin to cabin in Yellowstone. Who knew that we'd have electricity to recharge all our devices but no Internet or cell phone service! Not that WE miss it but I feel a little obligated to keep my vast reading public informed of our travels : ). So this is short because we are in a parking lot of a veterinary clinic on a Sunday in Cody, WY so that I can write but mainly so I can send some more pics ...

I get calls from Danner several times a day since I need to be reassured that he is still alive. He rode over 15 hours the first day and caught up with his friends in St. Joe, MO. He was hot and exhausted the temperatures were around 100 for most of his trip. They got off ...

One of the best 4th of July celebrations we've had. This morning we went to the parade on main street for an hour or so. The boys(Keegan, Collin and Jacob) got loaded up on candy. Afterwords, we went to the 'Buffalo Bill Museum.' It is a 300,000 sq ft museum with the largest Gun exhibit in the country. There are several other exhibits besides Buffalo Bills. We stayed for a couple of hours, then left and will go back tomorrow. We came back to the RV and relaxed for a ...
