On This Day in History...

March 11, 1824…The Bureau of Indian Affairs was created by the U.S. War Department. Ely Parker of the Seneca tribe became the first Indian to lead the Bureau.

Since moving to Wyoming, it has become abundantly clear to me how unfairly the Native Americans were treated by the white man.  It has been so wonderful exploring in Wyoming, Montana, Nebraska and South Dakota and experiencing the history of the old west.

March 11, 1969…The Levi-Strauss Company began marketing bell-bottom jeans.

Yes, I did wear bell-bottom jeans.
