A small crowd gathered, sprawling on the curbs and quilts under trees. A man announced the parade from a white gazebo, where pleated American flags hung from the railing.\n\nThe Pawnee Bill Wild West Show starts this way each year. It’s the overture to the reenactment of one of the three largest Wild West shows in the world, staged just west of Pawnee on US 64, at Pawnee Bill Ranch. \n\nRead the whole thing at Do What \n\nParade goers filed up the winding drive at the ranch, parked in rows in a buffalo pasture, and rode a tractor-hitched trailer to a pre-show of snake charming and blacksmithing, a mermaid, and a supper of cowboy nachos. Gordon W. Lillie, the architect of the original production, was dubbed Pawnee Bill for his work at the Pawnee agency in Indian Territory, a name that proved attractive to recruiters who visited the area looking for performers for Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show. Lillie spent his life preserving what he liked to remember about the Wild West, going so far as to collect one of the largest privately owned herds of bison in the world.\n<div>\n\nFor the big show, the parade announcer offered some advice: Sit in the bleachers to the south. Once the show gets started, there’d be a lot of dirt flying, and we wouldn’t want to miss the show for the dust.\n\n“Name is Mike Pahsetopah—Osage, Cherokee, Muscogee-Creek, Yuchi.” His name is Osage, from the Buffalo Clan, meaning “four hills”—“like four buffaloes on four hills in the distance—that’s what my name means,” he told me, smiling and pointing toward the horizon.\n\nBehind us was the Pawnee Bill Museum, a dark cave-like building where vintage posters and models of the almost suburban show encampment glowed from behind glass, with a children’s cowboy camp in the darkest part in the back, outfitted with a chest of toy guns. Mike put his fists to his hips as we talked, into the lime-green fabric of his costume as the sun beat on his black hair. His legs were covered in fur warmers, and the elastic of his armbands dug into his skin. He’d packed his amp and microphone, ready for transport to the next performance, and the audience that had gathered around to see a World Champion Fancy Dancer and America’s Got Talent contestant had begun filtering into other parts of the sideshow, to the pony rides and tables of jewelry and cast-iron kitchenware. “A lot of times people will come to Oklahoma, they want to see Native Americans, and this shows them that, you know, we’re still here,” he told me. “We still have our culture. We do these dances with this in mind.”\n<div>\n\nInside, behind a folding screen in the museum—just off the gift shop, across from the $1 arrowheads in mini Ziploc bags and cowboy-hat cookie cutters—were ice chests of bottled water and boxes of Simple Simon’s, at the ready to feed a cast of dozens. It’s something they’ve done the last three Saturdays of June every year since 1988, the centennial anniversary of the launch of the original show.\n\nNine-year-old Leah Brown is one of several girls who were going to be part of the show that night, between the Pawnee dancers, chariot racing, and the burning stagecoach. Headlining acts included sharpshooting from May Lillie and trick roping from Mexican Joe, plus the ranch’s maintenance supervisor doubling as Pawnee Bill. They all know Leah, who lives with her family in Lillie’s former carriage house on the museum grounds, a garden-and-cottage setup with an overflowing squash patch and a porch from where the surrounding pastures seemed to spill and unroll. It’s sandwiched between the log cabin used by Lillie and his wife and the 14-room mansion built by the fortune yielded from the show. It tops Blue Hawk Peak, named for the Pawnee man from whom Lillie had purchased the property.\n<div>\n\nErin Brown, Leah’s mother and historical collections specialist at the museum, was on patrol on show day, in a denim skirt and a Pawnee Bill t-shirt, a scene of trick-riding women across the front. The ranch aims to provide a glimpse of the imaginary Oklahoma of the 1880s, Brown said, a story that Pawnee Bill helped to write—“This is what we think of when we think of Oklahoma,” tourists say, she told me. She showed me the hem tucks on the bottom of her daughter’s flour sack-style dress—it’s authentic for the time, she explained, running her thumb over the folds that would be let out as the wearer grew taller. “She’s actually living my dream,” Brown tells me. “When I was Leah’s age, I wanted to be Laura Ingalls Wilder. I wanted to be able to live in a log cabin.”\n\nThere have been modifications to the show—there are microphones, CDs play the music rather than a live band, and, “because of the time we live in, some things just aren’t politically correct anymore, and we’re not going to do them,” Brown said. “I think our site does a good job of preserving what is historically Oklahoma, and then presenting the story in an authentic way,” she said.\n\nThe West was changing in 1888, being driven off into the ocean, its realities drowning and leaving only its stage-worthy legends and box-office busting stage productions to speak for it. Pawnee Bill knew his audience, the ones who would buy tickets to see both the American West and the Far East— “He had people from Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. He even had Australian Aborigines in his show,” Brown said. “It was a chance for somebody to go see people from all over the world, in one place.”\n\nPlus, Brown added, “People really wanted to see what an Indian looked like.”','How the West Was One','','inherit','open','open','','12395-revision','','','2012-11-15 09:18:48','2012-11-15 15:18:48','',12395,'http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/2012/11/12395-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(12401,1,'2012-11-15 09:33:23','2012-11-15 15:33:23','<a href=\"http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/2012/11/bootsy/photo-4-2/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-12402\"><img src=\"http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/photo-4-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"boots Drysdales Tulsa Oklahoma\" title=\"boots Drysdales Tulsa Oklahoma\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-12402\" /></a>\r\n\r\nSomeone\'s been playing in the boots. \r\n\r\n<!--more-->\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">[adrotate banner=\"8\"]</p>\r\n\r\nSomeone who has never really worn boots before.

Suspended from the ceiling are the bones of dolphins, a manatee, and the 40-foot, 2,500-pound skeleton of a humpback whale. Admission is for sale for $6 per head.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/?attachment_id=12915\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-12915\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-12915\" title=\"Museum of Osteology Oklahoma City\" src=\"http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/8539038999_de0f7df5fa_b-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"Museum of Osteology Oklahoma City\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" /></a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/?attachment_id=12916\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-12916\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-12916\" title=\"Museum of Osteology Oklahoma City\" src=\"http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/8539039387_989c20db25_b-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"Museum of Osteology Oklahoma City\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" /></a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/?attachment_id=12917\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-12917\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-12917\" title=\"Museum of Osteology Oklahoma City\" src=\"http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/8540149400_47ae0d7d7e_b-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"Museum of Osteology Oklahoma City\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" /></a>\r\n\r\nThere\'s an exhibit on Oklahoma wildlife.

Most interesting, though, was the museum gift shop. It\'s powered by Skulls Unlimited, \"the world\'s leading supplier of osteological specimens\" (1-800-659-SKULL), which sells various skulls to places like museums and medical schools. Inside I found various small animal skulls, snake ribs, and even human finger bones. They were priced at $10 each (reasonable?) and offered in a coffee cup near the cash register, like candy bars by the checkout at the grocery store we consumers like to buy at the last moment before the cashier asks us for our check, cash, or card.\r\n\r\nFrom the store I procured a prairie dog skull (the perfect birthday gift for a certain friend) and <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baculum\" target=\"_blank\">the baculum bone</a> of a raccoon. I heard that when it comes to coffee stirrers, a baculum is the gold standard. Most of the time, though, I just I keep it in my purse. I like to show it to people at parties.\r\n\r\nIf you like the idea of owning your very own animal skull, <a href=\"http://www.skullsunlimited.com/record_collection.php?id=29\" target=\"_blank\">check out the March specials</a>. The muskrat skulls seems to be a particularly good buy. When you have a few minutes to spare, spend them perusing the rest of skullsunlimited.com. It\'s edifying, to say the least.

The evening starts with a two-stepping course that begins with the very first lesson—in fact, the lesson <em>before</em> the very first lesson. I know this because I, the proud but clumsy owner of two left feet, didn\'t fall flat on my face. In fact, for days after, I could hear Bob Spears—he\'s the guy in the black cowboy hat in the photo above, and he\'s the one who teaches the classes, in jeans and a wireless-mic headset—telling me to step quick, quick, slow, slow, his voice in my head asking me to two-step to the mailbox, down the coffee aisle in the grocery store, in the parking lot at my office.\r\n\r\nAgain, class starts at 6 p.m. with an hour of beginner lessons. At 7 p.m., it\'s basic/intermediate, but don\'t worry—the 6 p.m. hour prepares you for the 7 p.m. Then, at 8 p.m. is the intermediate/advanced lesson, but just like how the two previous hours worked together, the 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. hours prepare you for the 8 p.m. hour. <a href=\"http://www.tcwda.net/Images/PDF/INTRODUCTION.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Here\'s the list of what you\'ll learn</a> (PDF; warning, exciting technical dance terminology ahead). The whole night costs $7.50. Not a bad price at all for three hours\' worth of entertainment. \r\n\r\nSo, you get to learn how you need to be dancing at <a href=\"http://www.cainsballroom.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Cain\'s Ballroom</a>, <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/CaravanCattleCompany\" target=\"_blank\">The Caravan</a> (hey, I hear they have a nice new dance floor), and <a href=\"http://tumbleweedok.com/\" target=\"_blank\">The Tumbleweed</a>, and you also get to meet a classroom full of new people who are there for the same reason you are—to learn how to do a little two-steppin\' from the guy named Bob with the nice smile who danced on stage at the Grand Ole Opry once. Everyone is nervous at first about switching partners every couple of bars, but by the end of that first hour you\'ve danced with everyone in the room, and you\'re a better dancer for it, even if you only started just that night. That\'s half the lesson, really.\r\n\r\nPlus: This? These Monday-night two-stepping classes? That\'s where my uncle met my (now) aunt. Now they have a brood of pond-jumping spaniels and a new tree farm. They\'re not the only ones—my dad found love on the dance floor, too, though it didn\'t begin on the one at the Moose Lodge. It was just one of the ones where it blossomed. Now my dad teaches line dancing classes with my stepmom, and he twirls her around in parking lots after dinners out sometimes.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.tcwda.net/Main_page.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Signing up for the TCWDA email newsletter</a> is the best way to keep up with what will be covered at the next week\'s class, plus any announcements on cool stuff the group is up to. You can do it at the link above. Or, you go for full immersion and sign the sheet on the clipboard just inside the dance hall door on the night of your first class (recommended).

In fact, for days after, I could hear Bob Spears—he\'s the guy in the black cowboy hat in the photo above, and he\'s the one who teaches the classes, in jeans and a wireless-mic headset—telling me to step quick, quick, slow, slow, for the rest of the week. He was asking me to two-step to the mailbox, down the coffee aisle in the grocery store, in the parking lot at my office. And I did all of these things.

The sounds of strumming guitars and the voices of your fellow campers and festival-goers play on until after first light.\r\n\r\nThe list of musicians for this year\'s WoodyFest would make Woody proud (and maybe a little dizzy). <a href=\"http://thislandpress.com/07/01/2013/guide-the-2013-woody-guthrie-folk-festival/\" target=\"_blank\">Get the full guide to the 2013 Woody Guthrie Folk Festival, complete with the times and locations they\'ll play</a>.','GUIDE: The 2013 Woody Guthrie Folk Festival','','inherit','open','open','','13208-revision-3','','','2013-07-02 14:04:18','2013-07-02 20:04:18','',13208,'http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/2013/07/13208-revision-3/',0,'revision','',0),(13011,1,'2013-04-01 09:09:44','2013-04-01 15:09:44','','GUIDE: 17 best Oklahoma festivals for April','','inherit','open','open','','13010-revision','','','2013-04-01 09:09:44','2013-04-01 15:09:44','',13010,'http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/2013/04/13010-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(13012,1,'2013-04-01 09:46:19','2013-04-01 15:46:19','','prairie chicken','','inherit','open','open','','5644328619_38ab037d13_b-944x629','','','2013-04-01 09:46:19','2013-04-01 15:46:19','',13010,'http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/5644328619_38ab037d13_b-944x629.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(13013,1,'2013-04-01 09:47:27','2013-04-01 15:47:27','<a href=\"http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/?attachment_id=13012\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13012\"><img src=\"http://www.tashadoestulsa.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/5644328619_38ab037d13_b-944x629-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"by Larry Lamsa\" title=\"prairie chicken\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13012\" /></a>\n\nThe redbuds are popping.
