Seminole Wind ~ John Anderson

Fashion for Preservation ~ Florida Everglades~ This is a greenhouse and preservation conscious fashion show! Enjoy! Dedicated to my Native American heritage, which I have always been so proud of and I hope to gain more info on. I am in search of Mary Morgan of Creek ancestry. Lived in Florida and Georgia. In search of my great and great-great grandmothers. It would be nice to fill that hole on my ancestry.com family website. The woman pictured in this movie is my great-grandmother Damiona Consuelo. She was native Guanabacoan. I am also very proud of her. She seems lovely! Doesn't she?

Ever since the days of old,
Men would search for wealth untold.
They'd dig for silver and for gold,
And leave the empty holes.
And way down south in the Everglades,
Where the black water rolls and the saw grass waves.
The eagles fly and the otters play,
In the land of the Seminole.

So blow, blow Seminole wind,
Blow like you're never gonna blow again.
I'm calling to you like a long lost friend,
But I know who you are.
And blow, blow from the Okeechobee,
All the way up to Micanopy.
Blow across the home of the Seminole,
The alligators and the garr.

Progress came and took its toll,
And in the name of flood control,
They made their plans and they drained the land,
Now the glades are going dry.
And the last time I walked in the swamp,
I sat upon a Cypress stump,
I listened close and I heard the ghost,
Of Osceola cry.

So blow, blow Seminole wind,
Blow like you're never gonna blow again.
I'm calling to you like a long lost friend
But I know who you are.
And blow, blow from the Okeechobee,
All the way up to Micanopy.
Blow across the home of the Seminole,
The alligators and the garr.

Nothin' like too much money and cocaine...

I'd say she definitely wants some Indian in her... gotta fill that hole... umm... on her ancestry chart that is...

Thanks fer the contrast between us ugly, materialistic Amurricuns versus those beautiful, simple, injun folk. But remember - if it weren't for US, those damned Europeans would have wip[ed out the Native Americans years ago.

Interesting... but like most true southerners, I have native blood... at least 1/4.

[ClassicRocker3D]

Interesting, but am I the only one getting sea-sick from the superfast random shots and angles?

@MSFIRECRACKER Thanks for the great scenery, really, I won't be crude. I grew up on the very north edge of Beaumont, Texas, on a road that dead-ended into the swamp until they dug the sandpits on out past the original end of the road. My Dad grew up next door to where I did and he's told me about wading the swamp to get to Bald Ridge.That's the ridge that they destroyed for the sand.I grew up in the swamp and on the river and it's hard to see how little BigMoney cares. Best Luck
