Before retirement our family traveled the New England area and when asked to we would teach at schools about our people.

The first thing that a family member would say when it was our turn to speak after a prayer.
A prayer to Creator for a blessing for our gathering that day.

Please do not take one person as the only way that our people held our ceremonies and our culture get at least a second opinion.

We never wore our regalia while teaching for two main reasons.

Our Regalia are not costumes; 
they are what our ancestors used to keep safe from the weather, insects, branches and animals and so on, Clowns wear costumes, 
only 
‘non Native Americans’ 
wear regalia for show!

It was a great way to get curious students to start asking questions.

And

It was easier to pass our ancestors tools and regalia around the gathering while speaking

Why do I keep writing about Florida?


I was perfectly happy showing Donna all around

 ‘New England and New York’.
She was perfectly happy showing me 
‘West of the Mississippi river’.
Until one day, we got a call from relatives.

Her dad, a Korean/Vietnam veteran was in the V.A. in Florida.

Her mom was in a hospital in Florida and knowing their love for each other, we moved.

We did not know that we were moving from an area of the country 
controlled by its citizens (California/Connecticut).

To a state controlled by whatever ‘special interest group’ willing to spend the most money electing their politicians!

In Connecticut/California for instance, 
citizens vote for their choice to serve the state.

In Florida,
 the voting public is 
badgered and bruised 
with 
absurd boldface lies, half-truths and insane statements 24/7 
from election to election to election; 
this had been going on for over 20 years!

I and a number of other Floridians 
are doing our part 
at picking apart those, 
‘absurd boldface lies, half-truths and insane statements’
 with
 the ‘Proof of the ‘Truth’

Lately we have been getting help from the Florida Media
 however; 
even they cannot compete 
with the loose money fighting the truth!
