Herds & Words
"If you were looking for the definitive symbol of the conflict between the cultures that had existed in the American West for at least ten thousand years, and maybe longer, and the culture that was just a building East of the Mississippi River, this culture of technology, of commerce, of grasping after tomorrow before it arrives, you couldn't come up with two more powerful symbols than the Railroad, and the Buffalo, because when the Railroad met the Buffalo, the Iron Age met the Stone Age, the machine arrived in the garden, and the West was changed for ever." - T.H. Watkins

LOL! I love the buffalo, as you might have guessed.
Hey Tommy -- Arathi showed me your bitchin' web site blog thingie and I think it's completely awesome and am very impressed.
It shows me that you're an incredibly creative and gifted person.
Lots of love

Yeah, Vickie, I couldn't resist posting that photo. You know they will probably be locking horns in a second or two.
"Adventures" is honored by a message from Buffalo Dave, the original head of our herd of trail runners. Thanks for the comments, Davey. You are Boss Bison.
