#60 Costume
One of the reasons for going to Cody, Wyoming last weekend was to attend the Plains Indian Museum 30th Annual Pow Wow - our first. What can I say - it was awesome. Overwhelming color and an inspiring introduction to intertribal culture they are working hard to preserve.This is during the Grand Entrance where the dancers are introduced in groups according to their dance division, gender, and age. I think these men were in the "fancy feathers" division. Eye candy. Lots of eye candy. I enjoyed the drums and dancing, too. What a weekend!
