            | Prayer 
                  for Today
 I am a Great 
                  Grandmother from the Chehalis Reservation in Washington State 
                  and I sent my love and prayers on a gentle breeze. I pray that 
                  it travels over the Land, gathering prayers and lives left by 
                  The Ancestors. I pray that little prayer gains strength as it 
                  crosses our Sacred Mountains that held Good Medicine for The 
                  People. We are a needy People who need much healing.

 Thanks Elaine!
 
 We have been 
                  asked over the years 'Why only 2 Riders'. This is because often 
                  only a couple of Rider's go out, mostly due to bad weather, 
                  between stopping points. It is not good for the horses to travel 
                  too far in the bad weather and certainly the Rider has to be 
                  experienced and weather worn to do it as well. At each stopping 
                  point the horses are usually switched out so another one can 
                  have a go, and often the Rider is switched as well. The past 
                  few years the weather has not been too bad and so that is why 
                  people are used to seeing a lot of Riders going out. This year 
                  so far it has been frigid and windy, any leader/ staff carrier, 
                  would not let inexperienced horses or riders go out in such 
                  bad weather, so it's safer to just have two going out together.   The Ride 
                  will travel 30 miles today. From Wessington Springs to Woonsocket. 
                  The total mileage will be 71 |

          Allen SheppardI love you all and all of you continue to give strength in a good way. 
          Ignore the negative, Uphold the positive continue to refuse to even 
          comment on negativity, we are for healing forgiveness and unity of the 
          six colors, four directions and colors of man, green the earth, and 
          blue, that which is above all. Every human of every society and faith 
          holds a piece of the puzzle and one day we will all need to come together 
          to see the true and good picture. - kodapi .~mn renegade
