Where the buffalo roam

The melting pot of Wyoming has been discovered. About an hour drive north of Gillette, Wy brings you to Buffalo, Wy. It just so happens to sit beneath the Big Horn Mountains. Pure beauty is the best way to describe the Big Horns. And they just so happen to still be covered in snow.

Every Thursday at an old school saloon in Buffalo you'll find a semicircle of chairs. Musicians gather and the best way to describe it would be they jam. Bluegrass music is played for hours. It's becoming a big deal and the saloon was packed out.

In the saloon there were the young and old, the mountain men and cowboys and this girl from Ga. The music was great. The saloon was also attached to an old hotel/museum. Some of the rooms were available for rent and some where set up as mini museums. I will never book a room in this hotel. It was one of the creepiest places I've ever been. No I don't want to stay in a room that looks like came straight out of legends of the old and creepy. Rumor has it the motel is even haunted.
