I drove past this between Salida and Cotopaxi on State Highway 50 in Colorado. I had to turn around and tell whoever that I stood with them totally assuming I was correct. I was and got the biggest hug of appreciation for doing so.

From my understanding, there are close to 3000 children being held around this country after being seized from their parents at the border.

Many will never see their Mom and Dad again because Republicans are totally evil.

You bastards!

Wounded Knee


Wanted to touch base for just a bit. Pretty uneventful.

The bad header picture is the burial site at Wounded Knee. It's run down. Depressing like other things here.

Crazy Horse was killed here and the building is a replica.





I respect that Ann I really do and think I understand at least a little bit.

Drive on driver.

Have a good one. Very warm the last two days.

    Take heart that you are seeing more of this country and it's history than 95% of the rest of the population will ever get to do again.
    Even if they wanted to.

    Have a good time my friend.
    I got lucky and got to see a great deal of this nation in my time. All but the Islands, Alaska and the North East.

    I ain't dead yet either.

    Wind-swept desolation. Interesting, none-the-less.

    Ever read bury my heart as wounded knee? That really is depressing.

    Thanks Busted I do enjoy this and chances are low I will ever get back this way again.

    The wind wasn't blowing Leslie and I very much enjoyed the drive through the southern part of South Dakota and you are correct by the way.

    I have Jim and the condition of this site is a direct reflection of the plight and attitude of Native Americans.

    Interesting shape of the memorial on the site where Crazy Horse was killed!

    What a sad chapter in US history. It seemed better tended when I last saw it 40 years ago.

    I've never seen that Duta but it's years out when this will be completed.

    Before the siege TC. Bad shape for sure. Had a fellow come up and hit me for some money and he brought up that period. These Native Americans continue to battle.
