My Christmas Tree

My biggest wish is for a world that is full of Love, and honesty!

Merry Christmas all!

Here is a picture of what I consider my Christmas Tree.

That tree is last years Sun Dance Tree. She stands adorned from the warrior Sundancers who captured her last summer. I came down off the hill from Hanblec'a, and the next day we went to cut down this tree for The Sun Dance Ceremony. The Tree is representitive of an "enemy" that is captured and brought back to the tribe. There the enemy is adorned and fed and given a position of honor within the tribe.

That day is called "Tree Day". The following morning the Sun Dance begins it's 4 day journey. We all gather around the arbor and the dancers dance around that tree all day for 4 days. NO food or water for the dancers during the dance. We pray for them to have the strength needed to pierce and break away from the tree.

That was back in August. Now it's Christmas time, and I have adopted this beautiful tree as my "Native American Christmas Tree".

A Tour Of My Home

So your on I-25 Southbound, in Colorado.

You take an off ramp in the little town of Apache Colorado. You look West by Southwest, and you'll see the other side of Cuerna Verde, from where I live. If you drew a straight line on a map, from here to where the very tallest peak is on the mountain in the foreground... You'll run right into where I live on the other side.

The dome house would be at the following Google Earth "Fly to" coordinates.

37 50' 13.23"N, 105 06' 10.09"W

Type those figures in and hit search...And BOOM! Your looking down my chimney.

Before I head back up on the 30th, I'll be posting some pictures of the land where I live. You'll get a grand tour.

So keep checking back till the New Year begins. You'll never know what I'll be up to next?

Be well all,

My Living Room

My Great Grandmothers rocking chair loves this place! She's back home now. I'm gonna start looking around for a donation stove. The Ohio Drum Conversion is ok, but it don't hold heat to save ya. Need thicker steel. The espresso pot? AWSOME! Works like a dream on that stove.
Be well all,

Farewell Fort Collins!

I'll be heading out tomarrow for Gardner Colorado. My internet time will become a very limited thing. Perhaps every week or so. I'll be living where I go to attend Sun Dance. I go there humbly to work on making our planet a better place for all of us. I go there to pray, and reflect on lifes problems, so as to find solutions. I will give you my snail mail address, if you would care to send a card some time. P.O. Box 304 Gardner CO. 81040
Here are the global coordinates so you can see my house!! 37 50' 13.23"N, 105 06' 10.09"W I love google Earth. Just type in those exact symbols, and hit fly to. It will take you directly to my roof! The circle you see to the left of my house is The Sun Dance Arbor.
I do look forward to seeing if any of you will send old fashioned mail. It'd make for good reading on cold nights.
Sorry bout the audio. But keep checkin back! I'll be posting who knows what next.
Be well all,

Down To The Wire

Well everyone. It's down to crunch time on my new Odyssey. I am so looking forward to complete solitude. I am also looking forward to ceremony time. I will be living where I go on Hanblec'a now, and this will make it all the more spiritual for me. Not to mention the regular Inipi ceremonies.
I will try and keep a posting going on here, although most of you who do visit, say nothing. I do appreciate your patronage to my site.
Last day will bring final thoughts and some pictures.
Be well all,

Getting To Know My Past...

This is going to be the cherry on my cake called life.
On that mountain top peak behind me is the Medicine Wheel. Look at the smile on my face. It's all I want, is to smile like that abundantly!


My time on this planet is getting better as I connect to the planet. I do so in revrence to Her. I will go be part of the planet, Unc'i Maka, and live in the dome. I will continue to walk the C'unka Luta Was'te.

How do you like the lamps? It's what I'll have to use at night at Atzlan, up on The Green Horn. And those covered oil lanterns? Potty lights. I found a set of 2 at Habitat For Humainty Building Thrift Store. PLUG PLUG PLUG!

Be well all!!! I AM! Brodda! I AM!

A Long Awaited Move

It is with the greatest of anticipation I say this...You are looking at my new, permanent home. I made a promise to myself years ago. I told myself that if the state of the world got so bad, I'd drop completely off the map. Well. It's time to do just that.

The place that this dome house is at is a very spiritual place. It's where I go to support Sun Dance every year.

Going off the grid is a bit complicated. There is absolutly no electricity, and running water is only running in the stream that the spring feeds. Here. Let me put it simply. The people in this world are getting too dangerous for my taste, so I'm moving permantly to a safe and secure home.

Finding me on the internet is going to change too. Rather than being every day I log on, it'll more likely be every month. I will have my phone, and it works there on 2 bars, so I'm not totally cut off. If you want my personal phone #, respond by giving me a contact E-Mail or phone to call.

All of my friends...This has been a long time in comming, but I can assure you there are much better things for us in the very near future. You'll see. I leave Ft. Collins for Southern Colorado on the 16th of December. So I'll be in and out till then.

Be well,

Tachi & The Snake

This is what a baby rattle snake can do to your dog. Tachi got bit right at the end of his curious little nose. The picture that he is panting in was just 5 minutes before the snake bit him. The other was 6 hours after.

He's doing great thanks to Lili, who made a special oil for him, & all of you who prayed for Tachi!

Thank you all!

A Play On Names?

Hey everybody,

Meet Shilah. She is a 6 year old, pure breed, blue heeler.

Here's the thing. I found a posting for this dog on Craigs List. I went to meet her a few days ago, and all she wanted to do was bite my hands. I put the kabash to that right away, and she went on with her regular routine. The people who were fostering Shilah, were more afraid to let this dog go than the dog was, but we decided to let her have a 3 day sleep over at my place here on the farm. She showed up yesterday, and has yet to explore all the commings and goings here at the farm. SHE LOVES IT! The best part is she has not even thought about this biting thing since she showed up here.

Now for the real wierd part. My wife left me to go live with her daughter, and start a "New Life". My wifes daughter is named Shila. (Pronounced Shilah) I don't know. Maybe it's just me, but I have never before meeting this dog, met anyone with the name Shila, with my wifes daughters name being the exception.

Strange things still going on...

Be well,

Everyone. Meet Kirt. He is a good friend here in Ft. Collins, and he took me to the place you see here. About 12000 feet up. Thats where we are, here.

Nothing Special Here...

Nothing special on this blog. This is the saddest day of my life, so far. I am about to turn this computer off for a good long time, as I am moving to places that only have dial up service. Yes...Those places still exist.
The love of my life is now in another place far away from me. We are only memories now.
This is only an accepted state of mind I am dealing with now.
Not weak. Heck! I just came from climbing a 12500 foot mountain where I prayed with C'anupa, and left tobacco offerings on the peak! Placed on 4 sticks, with the 4 directions colors holding the tobacco.
Nobody around for at least 20 miles in either direction. The naming of a outcropping of rocks now called "Hand Up The Dog...Twice." If I have to explain the name you need not know. You'd of had to been there.
And the Medicine Wheel on the peak! Oh, that Medicine Wheel! Beautiful in solitude splendor, it was, and is , and will always be.
Those who come here...
I will be back in chronicling my journey on C'unka Luta Was'te.
Mitakuye Oyasin! Aho!

The Red Road's twist's

Hi everyone,

After 15 wonderful years of marriage to the most beautiful woman in the world, she has decided to find life's experiences on her own.

We are going to get a divorce at her request.

The very old saying, "If you love something, let it go..." is at work here.

I love Karen Rae Anderson with all of my being, and if and when she sees us together again, I'm there.

I will be working on performing comedy once again, although it has been years. I can promise this much...

IT'S GONNA ROCK THE WORLD!

Good luck my Love, Karen. Gods Speed in finding yourself!

I have, and always will LOVE YOU!

Denny

Me, Chris, (my son) and Karen Rae... My love.

Priorities

How!

Like a bolt of lightning I have returned from Hanblec'a. I am a very different person than when I left for this quest. I am grounded, and focused. My focus is only a part of my vision. One must have vision before one can focus. I have the trifecta. Vision, focus, & clarity. I do not know what the Creator, Tunkas'ila has in store for me, but I trust it will be a wild ride.

Love your family with all the vigor they deserve. Walk in a way that will make your Creator proud that He created you. But most of all, open the line of communication to him. Talk to him. He IS waiting.

Be well all,

Preparation For Hanblec'a

Where The Thunder Beings LIVE!

This is where The Thunder Beings live! What a view!

Tunkas'ila's Fireworks

HAPPY 4th of July!

See The Thunder Beings

Watch this video very carefully. It is only 3 seconds long and in the first second before the lightning stikes, at the center of the screen, you will see a very small streak travel diagonally up the screen. It triggers a lightning strike when it get's to the left top of the tree in the foreground. If you can stop the video and manually move the footage you can clearly seet his phenom. It is A Thunder Being!
Be well all,
