All I Have Met

“I am a part of all that I have met.” ~Lord Tennyson Gray Ghost, TRNP’s iconic wild stallion, who lost his band of mares this season to young upstart, Teton, always has an ethereal essence about him, no matter what he is doing. He will always have a place in the heart of those who […]

Little Shadow

“What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night.It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.”~Crowfoot, “Blackfoot warrior and orator” I sort of feel like this should be called TBT (throw back Tuesday […]

Press Time

Press Time! A big thank you to free lance journalist, Virginia Grantier, for enriching the journey to Fly Without Wings even more! She drove to Medora, hiked with Robin and I to Lindbo Flats to truly get a taste of what live was like capturing images of the wild ones! Her artistic and thoughtful spin […]

The War Horse

THE WAR HORSE “This one isn’t just any old horse. There’s a nobility in his eye, a regal serenity about him. Does he not personify all that men try to be and never can be? I tell you, my friend, there’s divinity in a horse, and specially in a horse like this. God got it […]

But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies.” ― Jack Kerouac, On the Road This is my last morning […]

That Lightning Bolt

“…that lightning bolt was mine”  ― G.G Marquez This lighting bolt was Satellite’s!!!

Lincoln texted me from the park and said Circus of all stallions was at Jones Creek […]

Wild Honey

“Wild honey smells of freedom – the dust – of sunlight…” ~Anna Akhmatova Sometimes words just get in the way and it is better to sit and enjoy the view! Have an amazing day in your part of the world!Deb

Another Glorious Day

“Another glorious day, the air as delicious to the lungs as nectar to the tongue.”  ― John Muir Yesterday was a glorious day! It started at 4:00 am with Mr. David Jones (a very talented, generous, and fun photographer from Bismarck) and it ended running from mosquitoes and viewing an exquisite setting sun with three […]

Beauty Surrounds Us

“Beauty surrounds us.”  ― Rumi Late yesterday afternoon a storm rolled through Medora! The gully washer type. Dragging behind it was an evening sky flowing with colors and textures and horses basking in the cool air! Five bands to be exact in a valley surrounded by the lushness of the badlands! Wet and dirty they […]
