Daily Create #3 - Western in the Rearview

Snow cappedSnow capped mountains, barns, buffalo, and Buffalo Bills; the history of the West is a adventure story of wild frontiers and frontiersmen. These legendary tales of triumph over adversity are prominent threads in the American tapestry.

As much as I love the terrain of the West and a good Bonnie and Clyde or Doc Holliday story I can’t think of cowboys and buffalo without thinking of Native Americans and the lust for their land. I have to leave the romanticizing of the West in the rear view mirror.
