I agree, America must be among the most beautiful countries in the world. I love Yellowstone and visit the countryside around it too. People and pets are super-friendly. Something about ranches, you go back in time. The West really was/is something!

We were riding through Yellowstone and stopped at Cody for a meal. People were smoking outside, wearing their ranch gear, boots with spurs and cowboy hats, coming from a day of work. Outside the benches were arranged in a large circle. Everyone was welcome. You sat down and people talked to each other, just like you’d do at your house. No separate tables or seats etc. A stray dog came by. And met the house cat. And even they got along.
