On the way down, we see a lot of open ranch. Now
think of it, there probably is, "Brokeback Mountain," An Lee's story
takes place. Although the film's location, it was not shot here, but the story
is indeed a mountain ranch in Wyoming, but I do not know what a mountain is
that sad place.

From the town of Cody to Yellowstone National Park's
east entrance about 53 miles. Cody town, it is from the east entrance to
Yellowstone National Park to go through the city. Because the hotel is hard to
find in Yellowstone National Park, many tourists will choose to spend the night
in the town of Cody. We arrived in the town of Cody before dark. Cody town is a
tourist city. It retains the cowboy culture. If people want to see the shaking
cow, maybe Cody Stampede Rodeo to meet you.

Cody town's name comes from the names of William
Frederick Cody, his nickname "Buffalo Bill". The Cody is who? He is a
well-known figure in the American cowboy, and is famous. He is a soldier, and
he participated in the Civil War. He is a wild beef mongers, "Buffalo
Bill" nickname from the 4280 bison killed during the eight months. He is
also a famous entertainer, he pioneered the "Wild West Shows" swept
the world.
We pass by here, because it is tourists. If you have
some free time, a lot of places should stay some days in order to really
understand the beauty of the city. This may need to wait until after
retirement, with more leisure day. The kind of horse galloping
in the wilderness, or conquer strong cattle, that would be true cowboy life.
