Today Sti'Tumma would begin the trail ride by trailing the riders.
She took her time, although Zoomer wanted to be in the lead of the
pack. What a lovely day, open views for nice photos, and she
noticed that the riders were taking some lovely shots. Zoomer was
becoming impatient, so Sti'Tumma let him walk a bit faster to get to
the head of the riders. She was almost to the beginning of the riders
when a pair of riders, an elder cowboy and his wife, moved up to
talk to her. The lady asked, "We were wondering if you are a
medicine lady, you have all the scalps with beadwork on them
displayed on your saddle. And we wanted to know how you got
anyone to actually touch the scalps to put the beadwork on them."
Since that ride, and all the jokes and laughter about the medicine
lady and her scalps, Gilly has been able to have a dozen "imitation
scalps" beaded and ready for sale at each trail ride during the lunch
break at the wonderful and remodeled old campsite.
