They had ten warriors and a horse. I can't imagine what it must have been like to actually be there. I have been interested in these warriors since I taught about them in my sixth grade social studies class. Thank you so much for sharing. Prayers and blessings to your family during this difficult time.<br /><br />Carol in NJNonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14412128046574770843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-58853129751519757032017-10-31T09:54:59.575-04:002017-10-31T09:54:59.575-04:00It's Tuesday morning by the time this reached ...It's Tuesday morning by the time this reached me.

I remember when my Dad went, it was really sad saying goodbye to him, but being all together with the family and reminiscing was just wonderful. It felt a bit disrespectful when we were laughing so much, but it was my Dad we were remembering.<br /><br />As for your trip, you certainly fitted a lot of sightseeing into a reasonably short amount of time. Those warriors amaze me, I wonder if hey did face casts of all his actual army to get so many different warriors??52KIDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07422987031482083158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-71822502749539828342017-10-31T00:22:47.199-04:002017-10-31T00:22:47.199-04:00Just a thank you for all that you do for all of us...Just a thank you for all that you do for all of us.

Do what is in your heart!

I went through saying good bye and spending the final month with my dear baby sister in Ontario, OR this last summer. I know it has to hard on you. My prayers are with you.<br /><br />Thank you so much for sharing the Terra Cotta experience with us. Ever since hearing and reading about it 1974, it has been a phenomenon that has intrigued me ever since. It is hard to believe the amount of time and effort that went into building such an artifact, let alone excavating it. I feel the same way about some of the ancient ruins in the middle east that I saw on my duties there in the early-late 2000's decade. How did they build such things with the tools they had available at the time? .<br /><br />Blessings to you my girl, while you get your feet back into life at home.<br /><br />Donna<br />Kasilof, AK<br />where it is overcast, misty and foggy today.Donna Endresenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09161370395006714301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-9173207748626065792017-10-30T15:25:49.224-04:002017-10-30T15:25:49.224-04:00Those warriors are one thing I would really love t...Those warriors are one thing I would really love to see, but probably never will.

At a point, we’re ready for them to sleep in death so they are no longer suffering and it’s easier to let them go. It is so much harder for them to be there one minute and gone the next. Being an emergency medical responder, I see that all the time and it’s so hard. There’s no time to plan or say goodbye. Prayers go out to you and the family. Thank you for taking time for us during all this. We feel so privileged that you do so.Tammiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16768220423473165353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-92016067399811809662017-10-30T12:17:24.020-04:002017-10-30T12:17:24.020-04:00Hugs to your family especially your husband.

That's one place I will probably never visit. Too many people to deal with. I guess the older I get the less I want to be around crowds of people. Would love to win the Quilty Box. Never won anything. Thanks again and looking forward to your mystery quilt this year.
