My mother, who did not grow up in a teepee or ever go on a personal quest for her spirit animal, has decided that the eagle totem is her spirit animal. This is simultaneously amusing to her family and insulting to Native Americans who take these things seriously. C'est la vie.
In honor of the Native American culture that influences my Pacific Northwest hometown, I bring you "Spirit Eagle". The eagle totem signifies divine spirit, sacrifice, connection to the creator, intelligence, renewal, courage, illumination of spirit, healing, creation, freedom, and risk-taking. Maybe that's why my mom didn't choose a Spirit Slug for herself.

Make your way to Fossil Creek Park on South Onyx Drive in North Richland Hills.
Park in the gravel lot near the big logs that indicate the trailhead. Start your spirit quest by following the path, and stop when you get to a sinkhole on your right that has taken a few green barrier posts along with it. Don't fall in! Listen carefully for the beat of Native drums - is there a pow-wow going on over here?
Now backtrack a bit - just before the green posts, about 5 feet back from the trail and on same side of the trail as the posts, is a large tree that has some interesting knobby stubbly knots sticking out of it. This tree is a log house that is the home of Spirit Eagle, who lives at the base. Watch out for pokey prickers and poison ivy!
Please seal tightly and rehide well.
If you continue going forward on this loop, you can find the "Fossil Creek" letterbox as well.
