This year will be the 4th year of “Lakota’s Gift”. For the past 4 seasons, I have awarded a four day camping trip to an inspiring Pryor Mountain Wild Horse follower in honor of my favorite horse, Lakota. This person needs to be passionate about this special herd of horses and have some basic knowledge about them.
To be considered for this award, please submit an essay telling why you should be awarded this gift. Please include some information about yourself, what you know about the horses and what you hope to give back to the horses by being selected for this award. All essays must be submitted by February 1, 2017.
All trips start and end in Cody, Wyoming.
Past recipients of this award have been: Jonathan Stander, Brianna Harvey, Abbie Branchflower and Lexi.
You can submit your essay to this email: wildinthepryors@aol.com

Below is a slideshow of some of the many photos that I have taken of Lakota. Please give it sometime to upload before trying to view.
Sandy,
Love the horses and love your blog.
I have been to the Pryor’s a few years back and was lucky enough to see some of the horses.
I thought I would leave you and your followers a gift of music.
“All The Wild Horses by Ray LaMontagne” Maybe you have heard it?

“All the wild horses
All the wild horses
Tethered with tears in their eyes
May no man’s touch ever tame
May no man’s reigns ever chain you
And may no man’s weight ever defrayed your soul
And as for the clouds
Just let them roll
Roll away
Roll away
As for the clouds
Just let them roll
Roll away
Roll away”
I believe it is a fitting theme song for your passion.
Enjoy,
Randy Eggum
Thank you so much Randy! I love that song and actually did a video on it with the horses. You can find it on my YouTube Channel by clicking on my You Tube Link!
