Finally Home From Tour

Leland, Nathan, and Malcolm Backstage

Well, due to a wifi issue at a Holiday Inn, my last post has apparently disappeared. Too bad. I am sure it was witty, yet informative. So here I am to do a quick recap of the rest of tour-- I can hear your letting out your collective breath(s).

So, Billings was successful, then we travelled to Sheridan?, WY, by way of The Little Bighorn Battlefield. That was a suprisingly emotional experience. First of all, there was the fact that I was there with some of my dear, amazing Native American friends. The next part was the heartfelt and passionate narrative by "Ranger Rick" whose real name I don't know. He rode in the bus with us through the very barren landscape and told us the story of the battle that took place there. He was unbiased, knowledgeable, and amazingly dynamic. He used quotes, personal accounts, and told a very moving story of a great tragedy (for both sides) in our American History. We were all suprisingly and profoundly touched by the spirits of ancestors who were there.

We then entered the final days on tour where everything blends together... Where was I? Where was I going? Not sure... so here are some representative photos of the last few days:

So, as you can see, I was with an amazing and beautiful group of people. I was the ugly white girl in the photos, in case that was unclear. We had an amazing time, ate LOTS of sandwiches, and laughed a lot. I loved it.
