Stepping in Seattle

Hey all,

Finally got to Seattle, Washington State (Tacoma) after 19 hours. Dam Qantas delayed in Brisbane and missed flight from Las Angeles . My Cousin Tina and her Mum meet me at the airport and took me shopping and showed me around. Just like being at home with this fantastic hospitality.

Making Safe Steps

As I ponder my Journey today I remember a quotation I read in the Smithsonian Institute of the Native American Indian in Washington DC last year.

"We are on a human journey.
Everything in the Anishinaabe world is alive.
Everything has a spirit.
And everything is Interconnected"

As a major section of my journey is with the Anishinaabe people I am sure they and their blood brothers, sisters and ancestors will keep me safe and sound until I return to the river lands of my people.

Starting to make footsteps
