On the way home

This is Joe from Vermont again. The time has come whether people are ready to come home or not. The show was a success Friday especially considering we had one less week to work on it this year.The community seemed to appreciate the exhibit and the dinner we put on, we also offered free portraits with the 4x5.
We are waiting for the plane right now and we have already saw off the Arizona crew.
People have really developed friendships throughout the two weeks and
its hard to say goodbye to new friends. To keep in touch we have
created a contact list for everyone so we can all share our photos and
hopefully get together again someday. After today I have really
realized how far we have come since the first day here and its
something I will always cherish and remember.
For me the journey isn't over yet. I plan to learn much more about the Lakota tribe and all other native American tribes in my coming years. I will keep in touch with the group and all the people that made it happen. I know I will return one day whether it be with Exposures or not. The Lakota people are great people and I am honored to meet each and everyone of them.
There is more writing to come and Eric is going to upload more pictures soon.
