One thing that I definitely want to include in this blog is 0ur meeting with Jon Beartusk, a Cheyenne Indian who works part time at 7th Ranch. He is 35 years old (even though you would never know it looking at him). The thing about Jon is not only is he an artist but his art is done with magnifying glasses and the sun. He works mostly on plywood. He does portraits and is amazing. In 2008 (before the elections) he did a portrait of Obama which he hopes he can present to the President some time this year. If you are interested in learning more about Jon and seeing some of his work, go to

I hope you will be as impressed as we were with this young man. Unfortunately, all his work is much too large to put in the coach so we have to be satisfied in knowing that we met him and marvelled at his work.
