There are many legends about the white buffalo in Native American culture, one for just about every tribe. This particular specimen is named "Old Joe," and we saw him on a recent Flint Hills field trip at the Hays House in Council Grove, Kansas. You can read a 1994 Houston Chronicle article about the return of the White Buffalo here. You can get to the Hays House by driving west on 1-70 to scenic highway 77 and heading south through the Flint Hills.

I'm from KC and I have ALWAYS wanted to go out and hear the Symphony in Flint Hills. Great pictures!
I can make out Council Grove Auto Parts and, of course, Coca-Cola... but what text is painted on the upper right?
