Cactus Bar



Earlier today we completed our third round of 18 holes in as many days and were ready for a break. The four of us went on a palapa bar hunt in Salome, but had no luck. We did find the Cactus Bar and had a cooling refreshment. The bar is a typical Southern Arizona cowboy bar with many humourous and strange artifacts. 'Rumour by Fred' has the ceiling made from pressed seaweed and the bartender 'almost' confirmed it. Do we believe her? The Cactus name really does come from the cactus growing out front of the bar.

There are a few places of interest and it was a pottery shop that caught our attention. We checked out the place, but did not make any purchases as items that look good in Arizona sometimes do not look as striking in Saskatchewan.

We are in Salome for a few more days and we 'may' have some plans for the remainder of our stay. There is talk of entering the skins game at the pitch and putt course right here in the park. I want to enter the ladies Texas Hold Em tournament on Satuday, but will wait and see - that seems to be a retirement attitude!
