(Glenn) This was our final day in Cody, Wyoming. We spent another seven hours in the Buffalo Bill Historical Center. It is a great museum and if anyone is in the area it is the main attraction here and it should not be missed. Five different museums are contained in the center. The Smithsonian Firearms collection is in one wing of the center. If a gun or prototype was ever made, it is probably here to see. Cathy and I enjoyed the natural history museum the most but the Buffalo Bill Western History section of the museum was excellent. We both educated and entertained ourselves at the same time. The weather is a little warmer (upper 70's) but we are comfortable. After we left the museum we stopped somewhere for dinner. Cathy is trying to teach me to order less and share portions with her. I tried and just ordered an appetizer to share.....the appetizer was a medium buffalo chicken pizza. There is a gunfight each night on the street in Cody so we watched it before we headed back to the room. Cathy is washing some clothes and I am planning our next couple of stops. My friend Jim Garrard told me the first thing I needed to do when I retired was to stop wearing a watch. Well Jim, you would be happy to know I did not wear or bring a watch on this trip.Everything is going well and we are having a great time.
(Cathy) We had originally planned to bypass Cody but all the western stuff is fantastic. They have original guns from all my favorite old westerns. My brother Lee would have loved this section. Paladin, Matt Dillon, All the Bonanza guys..just facinating. Hard to believe tomorrow will be just 2 weeks since we left home.. I'm liking this retired business. But I don't usually know what time it is, what day of the week it is, nor the date. Sometimes I have to ask which state I'm in. Oh well..
