I work in the city and live in the country. I grew up in small towns close to Indian reserves. My wife is very reserved. Neither of us wanted the city life and like the plot of the old tv series "Green Acres" we chose to devolve back to the country life. It's a good acomodation. We have the land but none of the politics of a reserve. There's a pair of red tail hawks who spend their summers back in the bush some distance from our place. They often wheel and cry overhead. In Cree red tail hawks are called sakwatamo. I've heard they are called the keepers of sacred places. They embody a spirit I deeply admire and so I call my blog 'Prairie Hawk".
