It was really fun, Lucy Luevano, she works at The Confederated Tribes Of The Colville Reservation, she works as a TCP (Traditional Cultural Preservation officer). she gave us some advice about our language, she said, "no matter what language you speak, don't let the governement tell you, you can't speak it, because it's the connection to your people, and it's how you communicate with one another." When everyone got done introducing ourselves to her we left to go to the Omak Stampede where we saw "the mountain race", it's called the mountain race, because it's a big hill where you race down as fast as you can into a river.
We went to a museum in Okanogan, there we met Amanda she worked at the museum, she said that they built it where they did, because it was already a Native trading spot. It was really cool! I liked how they added stories to everything they had in there. they had a couple of quotes that i liked it was, "Everything on earth has a purpose, every disease has a hurb to cure it, and every person's a mission," by Mourning Dove. i like it so much because it says everything on the earth has a purpose, and for me I think it's true, because people say, "god has put you on this earth for a reason," if you believe in god, the creator, or something else. "whatever god you believe in, we come from the same one."
Later we went to another museum by the Grand Coulee Dam and it was really cool to because they rebuilt it two weeks ago, they didn't finish all the things, because they had some sticky notes on stuff, but thats okay i guess we still understood what they said. they also had a wedding veil and it said it that they are really rare to have, and what marriage is about, and talks about children, and death. how they do the ceremonys.
