“The Irma Hotel is a landmark in Cody, Wyoming. It was built by William F. ‘Buffalo Bill’ Cody, the city's co-founder and namesake who named it after his daughter Irma Cody. A focal point is a famous back bar made of cherry that was a gift given by Queen Victoria to Buffalo Bill.”

With all the guns in America, it does seem like they grow on trees. oi
And that car! I remember when they were all that big.

Yup. It looks like it is a branch. But it is, in actual fact, on the building and it really is HUGE.

Good timing with the car.
