His conversion album, of sorts. There's some good tunes on it. I like it more as I get older. I have everything he ever made, so it's easy to see he's one of my favorites. But, I have hundreds of favorites.

I have hundreds of favorites as well. I grew up with Dylan and know all of his transitions. Of course, like you said there are more musical directions I have gone in and loved than I could enumerate right now. Been a long ass time.

Everywhere. I guess the Ute reservation in Salt Lake City is the closest. A lot of battles and a lot of history around here. I love the mountain man stuff. When driving around the mountains, valleys and passes, I always try to imagine what it was like back then. Jeremiah Johnson stuff.

Been a fun ride, though.

That's amazing. I am really into native american history, like the legends and stories as well as spiritual aspects truly intrigue me. On my cross country road trip Utah will be a must see.

The Cherokee Reservation close to me is pretty sad to see. Its heart breaking how those people live and how the gov't did them.

Poor folks. Got caught in a fluke storm. There's a road I drive sometimes that parallels the trail they took down through the pass. Still pretty, still raw country.

Yes! I love reminiscing!

Actually its one of my favorite things to do. Sit around a fire and just talk. That's why I can't wait for fall!!!

How cool would it be for all of us endzone dudes, young and old, to sit around a campfire someday and just talk with great music in the background? Of course, rap wouldn't be allowed. :p

It would be an eye opening experience for some of our younger, less eclectic "dudes" :p

Happened to all of them, everywhere. But, great history. I have so many books regarding many tribes. Their ways, their crafts, religions, etc. Besides the stained glass, I do a little of the native crafts as authentically as I can. It is a strange feeling when you drive through some of the areas and are aware of the history surrounding it. There's a place about 40-50 miles north of here that is the scene of an old massacre. The Bear River Massacre. It's eerie standing there overlooking it. I was past it last week, again.

I think you would love my favorite movie of all time, Little Big Man starring Dustin Hoffman circa 1972. See if you can find someplace to rent it and check it out. Behr didn't like it but only because he has a problem with Dustin Hoffman.
Edit: Have you seen that movie Sly?

It would be fantastic. Well, you said music. That, in itself, eliminates rap.

It's a somewhat long movie but will take you on a journey where you laugh, cry and have your breath taken away all in one movie. I think you will be amazed.
Edit: when the movie is over you will hate General George Armstrong Custer.
