Page and I went to the Billy Dean concert last night in Cody. It was really good and we had a great time listening to his music.
We had pretty good seats in the Cody Theater. I tried to take a shot with my cell phone. I should have brought my camera. He sang all his old hits and added a few new ones. He told us he had taken a few years off from doing shows to raise his kids which got a huge round of applause.
I took a little drive outside of town today and took a few photos. Lots of horses in these parts.
I ran across this herd of sheep. They were on the move looking for food.
I really liked this tree when I came upon it. It still is trying to hang on to its golden leaves in the middle of winter and it matched the golden fields in the background
I loved seeing this old wagon just sitting on the side of the road
I went down to the Shoshone River and spooked a flock of mud hens. Didn't mean to do that, just wanted to take their picture
Today marks the 100th anniversary of the completion of the Buffalo Bill Dam, west of Cody
About an hour after I took this photo, there would be hundreds of people lining up on top of the dam to be photographed for the centennial photos. I would be one of the faces in the crowd
At the time of completion in 1910, this dam was the tallest dam in the United States
This is looking east down stream from the dam as the Shoshone River works its way down into the Big Horn Basin. This dam has provided the Basin with water to sustain life in this part of Wyoming
Former US Senator, Alan Simpson, was the speaker at the event.
