Bob...

Believe it or not, Joan says she's been there.  Something about a big
hole in the ground where the Indians used to run Buffalo off a cliff? 

Anyway, the float was just a rough lumber replica of a cowboy bar
(saloon) with drunk cowboys (us) and "floozies" (some of the girl
friends/wives)  and music. We all danced around the float pretending to
be drunk throwing beer on each other. (Considering all the Peppermint
Schnapps we had for breakfast, there wasn't much pretending! <grin>

Didn't know there was a PLACE named that.
