I lived in Cody when I worked in oil exploration back in the 1970's. Mostly worked the Oregon Basin and overthrust areas. Beautiful, wonderful country. Nice folks, too. One winter I met a Basque shepherd, hired to work the lonely season with his dogs and horses. I gave him a Hershey and some gorp. He didn't even speak Spanish!

Cody is good country, I'm going to take my wife up through there this summer. The nice folks part is the truth. I've been a lot of places and people don't get any better than those in Wyoming.
Just don't steal (or otherwise mess with) their stuff. I had a friend in high school who thought it would be cool to break off someones car radio antenae until he got chased down, caught, and whipped with it a few times.
Needless to say his vandalism days were over. No lawyers, jails, courts, judges, fines, community service, or cost. Just swift and blinding justice. Worked like a g-damn charm.
