Last of my Pow Wow pictures I am posting. These two kids are my girl Bree's. Trystan is 10 and half months older then my girl and Arjana is 3 years old. They really enjoyed jamming out that 4 days. Arjana took it very seriuosly and got very upset when she couldn't go out there and dance.
Trystan is the one in the Green Grass dancers outfit and Arjana danced jingle of course!:D
Second part of Pow Wow Pictures
1. This is the Woman's Head dancer and the start of the women's part of Grand Entry. Golden Age women follow the Head Lady dancer. Again the Head dancers help out in the areana and make sure folks are where they need to be at.
2. These lovely ladies are the Golden Age women. Primary tradational dancers with a few Jingle Dress Dancers. I loved watching these ladies! They can move! Put some of the younger women to shame I tell ya!
3. This is the Women's tradational dancers. There is a variety of dresses because it all depends on what tribe they are representing and what specific catagory in tradational they are dancing. Aren't these dresses and hair peices beautiful?
4. This is the back view of the Women's tradational. I thought you all should see how some of the hair peices are and more of the dresses.
5. These ladies are the Fancy Shall Dancers. Notice that a lot of the Tradational Women Dancers carry shalls also, the difference is the tradational ladies have their shalls looped over their arm to dance, the Fancy Shall dancers are drapped over their shoulders and they dance and make the shalls fly when they dance their stories.
6. This is the Women's Jingle Dress Dancers. This specific style is usually what most young girls do because they make so much noise!:D I have a lot of friends that use to dance this style when they were competing for their tribe's Pow wow princesses when we were teenagers.
It once was hard to meet people of like mind
Hobbies, interests, theories and ideas a treasure to find
Friends came to us by surroundings and circumstance
Sharing one heart perchance
We love them, our friends and family
They’ve impacted us eternally
Time brings growth, changes and inventions
Among them, the World wide web almost needs no mention
Beyond search engines and doing school work
A new way meet and greet all the while reading with a smirk
Finding others who think it not strange to work and play
Opening up to broad ideas and listening to what others have to say
Making a way through the LOL’s, tears and sharing fears
Smilies turned upside down and sideways giving cheers
Friends of a new culture emerges a new community
Joining hearts and minds as we pilgrim a this land of opportunity
In a growing town called mindsay
Enlarging our family in a heartfelt way!

There’s this little community in the state of cyber space
Where everyone knows your name but few know your face
Each visit brings others out to see about your day
The place I am speaking of is none other than Mindsay.
Now Mindsay happens to be the neatest little place
It doesn’t discriminate on the basis of lifestyle, religion or race
Those who have settled here have reasons for their stay
And also hope the friends they’ve made will never go away.
Connections are created here that time cannot erase
Thoughts pour out without the need to employ ole ‘backspace’
And when we are satisfied with what we have to say
We calmly close our browser and know that it’s all okay.
Or perhaps we go about reading and often touching base
Leaving greetings of text – regular font, italic or boldface
Knowing when the day is done – somehow and someway
We will meet again tomorrow at the home we call Mindsay.

MINDSAY
To the friends I have met, enemies too
I am glad I have met each one of you
You’re a guy, you’re a gal; you are here or yon
You’ve been a part of my life since that evening on
When I went to a sight, "Mindsay", its name
From that time forth I’ve not been the same.
What we will say, I don’t always know
That we will agree will not always be so
Perhaps we will mull, or I’ll make you smile
Just being together makes it worthwhile
Whether we talk of what life has to bring
Or just concerning spontaneous things
Thank you for stopping and talking a together
Listening and speaking, even thru stormy weather
I am glad that we all have a place to go
Where we can talk and nobody will know
What our blemishes are, not even a clue
I am thankful for "Mindsay" and grateful for you.
Bonnie, 2006
And the band played on...
Once upon a time,
A challenge was issued
For the minstrels to rhyme
Of the glories of Mindsay...
With skill and a lute
Before the king,
The wonders no man can refute,
The songs they shall sing...
One poor soul of little fame
Began to play
Struggling for the words
That he wished to say...
When the words did come
They made little sense,
But sing he did
Though he was quite tense...
Would he be flamed
By a great wizard
For a poor performance
And a message not quite heard?
And yet he continued
And tried as best he may
For failure is not an option
In the Challenge at Mindsay...
Should he sing of friendship
Or of family
That he has found
In the Internet community?
Should he sing of the trials
Of his personal life
Or matters of the world
And its continuing strife?
Should he sing of the fear
That he will be discovered
For who he really is
And his soul uncovered?
But those things matter not
As he stands before the kings,
He must play the lute,
He must continue to sing...
When he reached the end
Of his little ballad,
He awaited applause,
He turned quite pallid...
Some applause he heard,
Some tomatoes were thrown,
But his song was sung
That's all he'd known...
And so he had tried
For better or for worse,
The song was all he'd known
And that was his curse...
And when the all was over,
He left the stage,
His lute in hand
And awaited a new age
A new age when words were the key
To life, liberty, and the pursuit of prosperity,
When the notes for a lute
Would be his reality...
