So i have decided to contribute something to this blog by taking some of the historical moments in our trip and giving our followers an explanation of our rich history as Americans.
First we stumbled upon a monument that helped change the course of history. The Horse with a Gun statue stands tall in the city of Sinclare, Wyoming. The city was named after the donut when it was first discovered in 1832. Here was where the gold rush first started gaining steam. Gold was being found all over the country side, which brought many outsiders to the land. Many of the outsiders, known as people, were destroying the land with their industrial revolution in 1911. The last defense came from one horse.... with a gun. He died fighting to save Sinclare but he did not go with out a fight. He fired that gun for hours fighting those bad people.
He then encountered a problem. He was out of ammo and had no allies. Luckily, a friend from above was their to help him defend his territory. The Eagle gave a new hope to a grim situation. The Eagle of course the symbol of our national pride, was given this honor after the discovery of the events that happened near the Flaming Gorge, also known as the original Grand Canyon. Here we have a simple reenactment of the valiant efforts of the eagle and the horse with a gun that day.
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing part of our American history!
