Vernacular House: Buffalo Bill slept here
http://conchvernacular.blogspot.com/2011/08/buffalo-bill-slept-here.html
Sunday, August 7, 2011. Buffalo Bill slept here. While traveling through eastern Wyoming we passed Pahaska Tepee Lodge, the 1904 hunting lodge built by Buffalo Bill Cody. The Lodge was mostly used as a stop over for people visiting Yellowstone National Park but also as a base for Cody's back country expeditions. The the main lodge is crafted using local Ponderosa Pine (Pinus ponderosa) and has some very interesting construction features that occur when building material is plentiful.

Simple and straight forward. By deconstructing the. Building and exposing the structure he is able to give us an intimate. Evident with this house.
