Hello from Minnesota! Cleaning out space, letting go of stuff that no longer fits on my journey. Reflecting on my travels, as an integrating two spirited, son, & father, handling things that used to baffle me, neither living in the past nor closing the door on it, blessed by the support of my emerging family of choice. Thanks to the ancestors, those who share this journey. Peace love joy. Wichozani! Mitakuye Oyasin, “we are all related” “Wir sind all Verwanten” “nous sommes tous relies.”

1945 Marked Indian Mound near Esquagema Lake and TW
Here is the author at an Indian Mound with a birch tree on the north part. I always leave some tobacco for the likely ancestral remains that are in many of these mounds. Howard Heath, a resident of the East Range for many years, shared many of the stories he has collected over the years. Nearby is the pretigious Esquagema Country Club where Howie related a story of how he helped feed Governor Rudie Perpich some local nutritious specialities back in the day. I am grateful to have shared the journey and some historical and hysterical wisdom along the way. Thanks Howie for the memories!
