This last weekend we spent roaming around this city at Frontier Fort RV Park. Here is the 60 ton monument of the largest buffalo made. Down the street were many old buildings including a jail,
a bar, and Louis L’Amour writing desk and library. He is a well known artist that wrote about the courageous spirit of men and women in all regions of the US. He died in 1988, but his books live on.

Within walking distance is the Fort itself, and the National Buffalo Museum. We could see a herd of buffalo with the Albino Buffalo among them. It is considered sacred among the Lakota Indians. 
There is a prophecy that this buffalo will come and unite all races in peace.

After the fort, off we went to Fort Seward, where of course Rollie found a cannon..a howitzer this time. 
There were many parks to visit next to the James river and reservoir.

This was a nice place to visit. Also the restaurant at the Fort had great ribs and prime rib to top off our stay
