Day 244 – Cody Country (Part 2)

Day 244 of a Year Long Road Trip Along America’s Scenic Byways

Crook County Museum and Art Gallery

So I camped with the truckers last night at the Conoco…another first!  By the time I got up and going, most of them had left and only the two other camper folks
remained.  Before I left the tiny town for Cody Country, I stopped off at the Crook County Museum and Art Gallery to see the exhibit on the Sundance Kid.

First, this town was so small, I would have never thought it would have a museum, let alone worthy of a visit (my Reader’s Digest Scenic Drives of America helped with that).  Second, I found it humorous that it took me three tries to find the place!  I saw a giant sign on an old high school building mentioning the museum, but then I realized it said, “Future Home of the museum which is currently housed in the Court House”.  So I proceed to drive around the three blocks looking for the Court House thinking it would be an old, ornate building from 1915 like the bank. 

ON THE ROAD AGAIN!
