Buffalo Walk


Coyright, Terry Turner, 2009


A leaf from an old journal...


"... Returning across the prairies plagued by grass fires, fires which roamed across the land much like giant herds of buffalo had done in the past, I felt I had been forever walking as it is a long walk from the Alabama Coushatta off to the South to reach the Kickapoo and Wichita of the North. Where the fire had fed some days past, the charcoal black earth is already studded with the multimillion emerald green fingers of promised grass.


Can home be so far? ..."



Near old Fort Richardson

Jacksboro, Texas and miles to go

Winter, 1976
