We stayed in Dodge City on our way home from a trip out west. We were tired from a long trip and I was stressed out because our van had broken down in eastern Colorado. Getting it fixed was harder than I expected in a region where we had very little cell phone service.Because of all this, we didn't really see too much in Dodge City. This was a shame, since the town has a long and interesting history. The museum downtown seemed really expensive, especially since it was the off season and they didn't have the daily gunfight going on.
We did stop at a very nice little Mexican restaurant, El Charro, for lunch and to borrow their phone so I could call my slippery mechanic in Colorado. It was a good town to rest for the night, but we were glad to be on our way after lunch the next day.
