Heading back through Yellowstone!

The Ruby River

A Stop at Virginia City

"Virginia City became one of the first
preservation efforts in the West
and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1961.
The gold-rush era fasle fronts and territorial period landmarks
reflect the optimism of Virgina City's early residents
providing a unique window to the past."

There aren't many things I enjoy more,
than spending some time
in a historic Old West town!

Lunch at Bob's Place.

Pretending that I am back in time. :-)

Come along and stroll down main street with me. :-)
