Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf
Key, FL: As we were coming back from our laundry and grocery shopping chores, it
was 83 degrees. Blue skies, turquoise
waters, and gentle breezes. Another
perfect day. After putting everything
away, I sat outside and finished my latest book, “Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee”. This book made me so angry and ashamed of the
arrogance and greed of Americans who unabashedly brought our indigenous peoples
to near extinction. Unlike the way
Indians are depicted in the old westerns, they were for the most part gentle
and peaceful people who just wanted to be left alone to live their lives as
they always had. But the Americans wanted their land. When they couldn’t swindle them out of it or
force them off it, they found a reason to slaughter them with alacrity—men,
women and children. And they would take
their beautiful Indian ponies and slaughter them too. How pathetic.
Pictures from our party on Sunday night. There sure are a bunch of talented musicians/singers in this park.
