The last night we stayed in a regular hotel more convenient to the Lisbon airport for our early morning flight. When you walk into the hotel you get this view of the bar.

Two Dot, Montana. Located off of Hwy 12. Needed to stretch the legs and I,m a sucker for road signs. Sign was something to the effect of the Two Dot Bar........ World Famous!
Drove around the town, all three streets or so that it had and decided that a beer with the locals might be a good idea. The two ladies in the bottom photo made up the crowd in the bar. Was told that I had an accent ....... and wanted to know were I was from . Tried passing myself off as being from Idaho.
The gal setting at the bar would have none of that........ " Now listen, I grew up in Idaho and not a soul there talks as slow as you.............. were you from " ! Busted by a barfly, I had to fess up............ Kentucky . " You sure came a long way to get a beer " !
Yes I did !

Twodot was named for "Two Dot" Wilson, a local cattleman who got his nickname because his brand was two dots placed on the shoulders and hips of his cattle and horses, which made it very difficult for a thief to alter the brand.
Two Dot was never one for dressing up, and one time in Chicago, having arrived with a load of cattle, he was arrested for vagrancy because he was so dirty and unkempt. He asked the policeman to accompany him to the bank, and when it was verified that Wilson had just deposited more than $10,000 he was set free. The incident had begun as a practical joke. A couple of cowhands who had accompanied Wilson to Chicago thought it would be fun to play a trick on the boss—they were the ones who pointed him out to police as a vagrant. But Two Dot found out about their conspiracy and went them one better—he took the next train home and left them in Chicago with neither money nor a return ticket. (from Cheney's Names on the Face of Montana, Mountain Press Publishing Company)
Two Dot was built in 1900. The Jawbone Rail Road arrived in the fall of 1899 and the town of Big Elk, a few miles to the south, was moved to the rail head and became Two Dot.

Temple bar was introduced to the west of the city to expand the city's boundaries. The original wooden gate was destroyed by the great fire in 1666 and replaced by a Wren gate made from portland stone. This column marks the spot, and is topped with a dragon. Many of the entrances to the city are still guarded by dragons, although most of them are much small than this beast.
