Go West, Young Woman

Today we are travelling to Cody, WY to see a part of the west that will be new for us. Yesterday was an afternoon of white water rafting down the Gallatin River and then to the Oasis Steak House for a true angus beef steak dinner with all the trimmings. Here are a few pictures that I managed to capture during our busy day....

GA CoUrt YarD HOuNds Raid The WeSt..

Ahhh, the air is thin and clean or so it seems...the mountains surrounded us and gobbled our souls as we landed on Sat. and immediately began our 10 day trip out west. With John Mayer singing in the background Wonderland,   I am happy to share our trip..We brought daughter Courtney on her maiden vogage and she feels the spirit of the west, no doubt she would;  a true cowgirl at heart..Her home away from home as she lies in the hammack trying to figure out her next move....A Big Wide World and we are blessed!

Happy to be waitin' on our luggage in Bozeman, MT!
"The Garage" we ate at in Bozeman downtown when we got there.. (in an old car garage) 
Menu covers are license plates...

      
Planters on the streets are gorgeous...low humidity and 70 ish degrees.
Always checking out the window merchandising....
More Visuals for inspiration...

Courtney becoming "unsheltered"...trying Chai Latte for the first time.  Yum Yum!
