My favorite place to stop and talk to the spirits. Kylee and I have climbed right to the horses and visited them.
A distant rumbling strikes the air. Swirling dust motes reach skyward. A dry breeze dances across desolate lands. Thunderheads build and fingers of light split the sky. A breeze becomes a howling wind. Hear the voice of creation! The Grandfather Spirit sends his message across the plains, echoing through the mountains and valleys of Mother Earth:
"Creatures of this planet, behold, a Great Basket! I send this basket, bearing the gift of life, to all corners of the universe. Now take these ponies, I am cutting them loose. They will inspire a Spirit of free will. They will be a companion for work and play on this planet. This is a way for you to see how all life depends on all other life. This basket is my heart. You are at one with me. Eagle of the sky, we look to you for vision. Salmon of the water, we look to you for life-giving sustenance. Deer of the land, you provide a bountiful tranquility for our Mother Earth.
"From the center of my Basket burns the fire of our collective souls. Humans, you are responsible. You have the power of reasoning and the gift of free will. Use them wisely. Always be aware of the limitless nature of this ever expanding universe. Let us live to inspire each other."
You will notice that there is no basket. Funds rand out for David but the ponies endure. MB

Omigod! Lois Anne is gonna love this one!
Those ponies look so real from a distance - like in an old western movie.
I'd not heard of this project, but it is so meaningful! Thank you for sharing that meaning!
Too bad the funds ran out and the basket was not made. But the horses run free and stand tall for all to enjoy. I think that would be quite a rugged climb to get up close and personal with those horses. Peace
I really like these ponies. I'm glad they've endured even though the project was not completed. You had quite a climb to get up to them.
This is brilliant! What a fantastic location for sculptures. Love this!
Art thou doing these things on purpose? :-)
I'm glad the ponies have endured. They are are stunning way up there.
How unique! They look real. I can imagine a bunch of real wild horses running wild up there.
What an amazing sight! I love the words...thank you for sharing. That must have been a special memory for you and Kylee to share. :)
Storage bin is compassion. You are at one with. Eagle of the sky, we give the impression of being to you for vision. Salmon of the water, we look to you for life-giving sustenance. Deer of the land, you provide a bountiful tranquility for our Mother Earth.
