T3logy - i'm Green with envy ! user added image

I spent 2 months in Tucson, Arizona. there was so much Native American influence there (as im sure you'll know), found myself imersed in immence Culture and Spirtualism - probably one of the nicest places i have been to. To this day.. it has changed my Life.

Please, allow me to introduce myself properly: I am La'Dene, daughter of LaBertha, daughter of Mary, daughter of She-Who-Crossed -the Big-Muddy, I am La'Dene daughter of Edward, son of Annie, daughter of Blue-Bell; daughter of Bear. I am La'Dene, daughter of the moon of the Bear Clan, an elder, pipe carrier and medicine woman of the Tsatsilagi / Creek, Blackfoot /Cree, and Lakota.

Hence the name: t3logy - 3 of me: Tsatsilagi, Blackfoot Cree, and Lakota.

The Navajo are greatly spiritual. You met them or the Hopi?

I don't know exactly, we traveled up to mount Lemon (i think) and made some Native American friends along the way, i was given a necklace made of blue stones. and was told my "birth animal spirit" (think thats right) was a wolf.
My Wifes side of our family are deeply spritual, so were all jelous when i went.

Great lineage btw. user added image

tx.
could be apache, or kiawa.
Wolf medicine is good. Great guide to have, the wolf.

to answer your original question, i am a bit literate (i'm older than dirt, have a couple of degrees, have worked a few decades and the industry insisted on it). tx for noticing.

Great final entry Murph.

Been checking in from time to time (when I get a little time that is) and this is a really well worked piece my friend.
The water is really well executed, nice and murky, totaly believable. The creatures not bad either!

Congrats on finishing so well and good luck with the comp.

Chris

Hi Murph,
Since I am in Tucson as we speak and was born 15 miles inland from Oceanside California I had to post something here. user added image
There are two Indian Reservations around the Tucson area. The Tohono O'odham Papago and the Pascua Yaqui.
It is unique here but I do miss the ocean terribly sometimes.
anyway keep up the great work pony needs the competition...:p
