We've been on vacation from blogging for almost 2 months! And loving it!Here are the boys at the Traditional Ways Gathering on the Bad River Reservation on Lake Superior. Ben is holding a rawhide knive sheath. Nate made a rawhide pouch.
The boys made beeswax candles and hobo stoves. Nate worked on a clay oven and Ben started a fishing net. They both loved traditional archery.
We spent the week camping and learning traditional skills. All week the boys said "When we come back next year..."
My favorite quote was from Ben (11yrs). We stopped at hotel for a night on the way back to Madison and Ben said "Look, our room has a compost bucket ( i.e. ice bucket)"
September Action: reduce our car travel. Stay tuned for details of our No car/Low Car Challenge.
