Medicine Bow #98
Almost every summer since I've been married, we have traveled to my wife's family ranch for a reunion. One place that I find myself always looking to see is the Medicine Bow Valley. Have you ever noticed it? The story of the name goes something like this: Native Americans gathering in the area to collect wood for bows called anything excellent for the purpose for which it is intended "good medicine". Since this location was particularly good for making bows, "good medicine bows" became a name for the whole region. If you haven't been there, I highly recommend it- but if your vacation plans are keeping you closer to home, I hope you can enjoy my peek into the area.
