Old Classics Make New Friends
I'd love to read a book written by "Injuns" about that time period. Would they glorify natives raised in the white man's traditions? Hmmm. Good book.

Oh Hana De Bloggess (on the Prowess)!
They called her "Pocahontas" for many a moon, though they should have called her "Autumn Rider" (like her sister who was called "Summer Shepherdess").
"Hey" means "Hi" in the Lenape (Delware) tongue. I'm workin on my vocab- one monosyllable at a time.
See ya soon! (And thank G-d I didn't fancy myself Mexican. I'd look peculiar in a sombrero.)
dear autumn rider,
please throw out all pink, purple, black, white, grey and blue items. (and all shades of cerise.)
this includes clothing, makeup, furniture, cars, (yes eggplant, that means you) room accessories, paint, friends and relatives.
