The total mileage was only about 170 miles from Cody to Jackson but it took a solid five and half hours to make the trip. Frequent stops to see the views and a swim in Yellowstone Lake (water temp. 53 degrees). The water was so cold that it took you breathe away…fun though!
We pulled into Jackson, WY around 5:00 PM and had to hustle to catch the 5:45 town shuttle (shuttle) to town square in order to see the Jackson Gunfight. Arriving a little late, our view of the show was average at best but we were able to take it all in. After the show, we splurged for our first dinner on the town! Beef, Elk, Buffalo and wild boar all made to the table. We all left FULL and ready for bed.
A small nightcap and some good reading were the perfect ingredients to a sound sleep. As a side note, I picked up a book called Woody Guthrie: A Life by Joe Klein. I have found it to be not only an amazing story of an American icon but an incredible lesson in American social history.

Who's that handsome devil on the fence with Emma. He sure looks like a ladies man. I hope all the dads in Cody had their daughters under lock and key.
