The Sheridan Inn is another beautifully restored historic hotel. It opened in 1893 and, of course, its most famous guest was "Buffalo Bill" Cody. Over the years, the hotel closed and, for a time it was an office building. Thankfully it was purchased again in 2013, renovated and updated back to a hotel. Each room is named after a character from Bill Cody's life. Our room was named after "Death Valley" Scotty.
We went downtown both for coffee and for supper. Main Street features some really nice, and interesting, sculptures. A lot of them had an "old west" theme but there were also lots of animal ones that we really liked. The sun angle wasn't the best for some of these so a few are not the greatest photos but at least they give an idea of how nice these were.

| This lizard was on one side of this, with the snake on the other. See below photo for how the lizard's tail falls over to the snake side at the top. |

Without the foggy conditions we had on the way there, the drive back was very scenic. We stopped at this overlook where there is a paragliding launch and a nice landing zone below. Conditions weren't quite right for Andrew to fly.
