"In Lakota culture, the Heyoka spirit comes from the Wakiyan oyote, the Thunder nation . . . When that spirit says yes, it means no. When it says no, it means yes. Whatever it says, it means the opposite. We call that spirit a Heyoka."
Albert White Hat, Sr.,
Lakota chief
Photo: Thunderclouds, Badlands National Park, SD; May 17, 2013. Several hours after I took this shot, I was reading in my tent. Suddenly, the fiercest storm I've ever experienced let loose from these clouds. The lightning and thunder came CONTINUOUSLY for three or four hours. It was absolutely amazing!
