Diá ocho

I am just going to say this once because I’m not going keep saying this again. I want those people out there to live your live, don’t be down, wake up and smell the coffee.

SO I’m going to show you the people who really put their lives on the top.

THOSE people were the Pecos Pueblo people; I went to the Pecos National Park in Las Vegas, it is not a casino  we went to, it was a city called Las Vegas, so don’t get it twisted! What I really love about the Pecos Pueblo people is that they show love and a lot of respect to the Mother Earth, they had done a lot for the people that today’s people don’t even realize how these people went through so that why I’m here to explain… So shall we get started…?

Okay, At the Pecos National Park, we saw a movie about Peco’s history. Let me explain the history.

At midpoint in a passage through the southern end of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the ruins of a Pecos pueblo and Spanish mission share a small ridge. Long before the Spaniards entered this country this village commanded the trade path between Pueblo farmers of Rio Grande and hunting tribes of the buffalo plain. Its 2,000 inhabitants could marshal 500 fighting men.

I also went to the Kiva below the ground. I never went into one till this kiva I went to it was kinda small to me because how many men could actually fit in it?

I learned that about 50 men went inside the Kiva they went to the kiva for a meeting, ceremonies, and social. I like the Pecos National Park because it’s very historic

I have to move on I have to say that I went to Fort Union and Santa Fe trail I have learned a lot about the history of Pecos, the people who came from the east to live in the Southwest but didn’t seem to like the lifestyle and moved to other states, and others history of the Native Americans Indians.

I have seen the landscape of Fort Union and I can’t believe how those people went through and how life got boring  in there was only a prairie and  a few people from town and not other different people and the Santa Fe trail and how the Native Americans endured a lot from the Spanish, like the torments and attacks from the Spanish, I can’t  imagine my life comparing to their life. I have to be grateful of the life I have now. I never thought life wouldn’t be so easy til I hear from other people’s viewpoint of their lifestyle.

I shouldn’t be discouraged of my lifestyle now, I have to be more aggressive to life itself and be me for once. I can’t give up if I do then nothing I can do to survive in this world so to be it.  

I enjoyed the rest of the day of this trip and learned a lot of the history of the past and present that I’m in today.

Well till then I’m off to bed On the Road 09.
