Dakota 38 + 2 Memorial Ride 2017

December 16th 2017
Morning. Today the Riders are having a well earned rest in Flandreau.

When I opened this page this morning I saw to my amazement that the photo above from 2013 is of the horses making their way in the snow to Flandreau. When I chose each photo of Julie's for each day I didn't actually know which would go on which page until I named each one and saved it. ( I then add each days info as I go along and it is easier to do a blank page for each day ready for that info.) On this one I guess Spirit moved me to add Flandreau to page eight! I love the way Spirit works.

Video - Arriving in Flandreau yesterday

Ramona Gerber I so love seeing these live videos. My heart is so happy to see these Warriors ride & many blessing for their horses for carrying them on this journey. Much love from Alaska!

As the early morning light starts to make its way over Mother Earth, prayers have been said for the horses, riders and support crew.
As the sun sets, prayers are offered up to all. Tears of gratitude and appreciation

May your journey be blessed.

Sadly, this my was last day on the ride. I use the word "ride" loosely as I never even sat on a horse!!! I had two "spur of the moment" offers but had already made other commitments. Anyway, I'll keep the map updated and post any info I get from the ride. Prayers and best wishes to the horses, riders and support staff. I will remain with you in spirit.

Good Morning all! A much needed day of rest for all! May you be able to release all you need to today so that your next re-mount is a little bit lighter! May the day allow for connecting with others, those there,those in spirit,and those sending their love and prayers from around the world.

This day Grandfather Sun is uniting all colors to rise together as one!
Following this journey for the first time, I am humbled,grateful,and honored to be part of this even through this device I type on, this year.

I am with you in spirit. Sending prayers and smoke up humbly asking for you to receive what you need.

Thank you for the true history you are sharing, lessons you are teaching,and willingness to continue! May your bodies,spirits,and those of the four legged all rest well today! For tomorrow you will continue to ride like the loving warriors you are!

Much love,honor,respect,and gratitude from Texas!

This is my picture of the day. It is by Travis Blackbird and is called Manifest Destiny

Manifest Destiny is what I call this peace, a lot of thought and prayer went into this one.
Some people may think that it's just a drawing but it's not, it's more then that..
Each of you will have your own thoughts and will come up with your own opinions.
My thoughts turn to the riders and how much of an honor it is to take part.
I just want to say thank you for taking the time out of your daily lives to get on your horses each morning to recognize the lives lost in such a tragic time of our people.
Remember and pray to our ancestors for strength and guidance along the way.

 


Goodnight - Clayton Mann


Thanks for the messages, keep sending them in please.

That's it for today.... Prayers sent from me in England for the Riders, the Horses, the Crews, the Communities who feed and house the riders, crew and horses, the Supporters worldwide and YOU... Mitakuye Oyasin
