From the Trail...

From the Trail...

We are in Walnut Grove, Georgia at pow wow. It has been a very nice pow wow, we are on an organic farm and they have fed us very well!! Was really great to see my Lakota brother Tatankala again, and some other familiar faces. They had a flag retirement ceremony last night, I had never seen that before.
One of the last pow wows we did in Florida, I had heard about them bringing the Grandmothers back, to start the pow wow. Well, so far at every pow wow we have done outside Florida, they have started out with a Woman's Power Circle. They play an honor song and the women cleanse the circle before the grand entry begins. It was very awesome!! And I was very honored to be asked by the head woman to participate.
Well, that's it from the trail for now.
Much Love and many prayers,
Wrulf

Crossing of Mary Lara

I received this info from Carla of the Family Drum Singers today:
 
I regret to inform you all that Mary Lara, Ernies wife, passed away yesterday.  She and Ernie were in a car accident on Friday, and she had some injuries that she could not overcome.  Ernie is doing ok.  He suffered some cuts and bruises, but his most severe injury is his broken heart.  Please keep him and the family in your prayers!!!  My sister Caren or I will pass on any information about any services as soon as we get them!
 
Carla
 
PS for those of you who may not know Ernie.....he is one of our singers.....an Apache elder.
Mary Lara - We will always love and never forget

The Longest Walk 2

We are in Oxford, Alabama at pow wow and yesterday The Longest Walk 2 came through. I took some video and will get it posted later this week when I can get the laptop online. Been a nice pow wow, good location, I would have thought there would have been more public coming in then there was. It was really awesome sitting with some of the walkers and listening to their stories. Seems we are meeting more family every day. I will try to get more pictures today and will post again in a few days. Much Love and many prayers to all ~wrulf
