This video contains good candor,views,sounds and historical events in our country.

The story is told by one of my favorite writers, Frank Markus. Ive enjoyed his work since his days at Car&Driver magazine.

I hope that you enjoy this during a quiet time of the day as much as I did. It just kind of took me away.......Bill

Thank you Bill for posting that video!! The video contained 3 things that i have a passion for! Mustangs, nature, and of course native american indian history! My greatgrandfather was full blooded cherokee and my greatgrandmother was choctaw, so i have a real interest in this subject! I dont exactly remember wich granfather it was (as far as great great great...etc) but i know one of them rode the trail of tears in 1830s. Heres a pic of a real bow and quiver made from buffalo hide from the cherokee people. It was a cerominal bow and hangs on my wall along with other things i have! Once again, thank you Bill!!

Nice! I went to college for 1 yr at Cape Girardeau upriver from you and used to spend time at Trail of Tears State Park contemplating.

Supposedly there's a trace of Cherokee in me but I don't really know. Once in the NW I sort of adopted the Nez Perce and Chief Joseph is a personal hero. I continue to breed and protect his horses.

I'd like to watch Bill's vid link but my bandwidth limitations don't allow 16 min vids.
