Medicine Bow, Wyoming - Fossil Cabin Made of Bones

Just an interesting story about the cabin made of Fossil Bones: When we visited in the mid 1970s, we were in a motor home (RV). As we pulled up, we were greeted by an exuberant Mrs. Boylan, who owned the cabin at the time. She thought we were there to deliver her RV, as she had recently purchased one and it was to be delivered.

Her buoyant attitude and infectious love for life was not lost on us. She excitedly got into the RV and took us to where she found the first T Rex skull and later entire body. She also let us tour her fossil displays and told us how Walt Disney himself helped her lay the floor of the cabin! What a GREAT LADY! [Kevin Morris, 08/28/2009]

Fossil Cabin is currently closed and sporting two huge "for sale" signs. You can still drive up to it and take a look at the outside though. [Christine Velez, 12/15/2008]
