RE: Blackfoot Maiden ~ Water Spirit
Thank you @merej99, lovely response. The Native American story is tragic but inbetween all the sadness there is magic. I tried to catch that magic!
Someday I'd like to take my daughter and grandkids and met this side of our family. The Blackfoot tribes didn't all die from diseases, famine, and war. They got too keep their traditional lands, even though over half the the people died off from European diseases and their traditional foods killed off to control them. The nomadic People ate buffalo and gathered plants as their food source. It was planned to kill off the buffalo, thankfully they are making a recovery as well.
There are hundreds of lakes near the Montana and Canada border full of rainbow rocks.
