Yesterday we made it to coeur d'alene and it was fun because we got to go to a culture dinner and it was great, it was there first culture dinner bringing back the traditional foods, the food was good and watched the girl a couple dances, and me and a couple of our friends also danced, the girls that danced were also from white swan. The language and some of the culture is fading and they want to do anything they can to bring it back, its kinda the same way it is at home, they only got 2 fluent speakers on the land and they are both in there 90's, our language is also slowly going away but I'm trying my best to learn it. We also seen a power point on the watershed and the danger of the water and how its effecting the family's and the land also the animals, its a real big problem here. We did set up camp late.

We had to get up early to take a shower and seen another power point and visited the land that they did a project on. The water had a lot in it and people put allot of work into the land so it was pretty nice to go out there. We also did our little part on helping making a canoe and that was fun and got to work with different tools, i forgot the name of them but it was fun. We also went to a spot where they keep the artifacts from way back then to now. I did have fun and did learn about the land. We only got a couple more days to go but i heard that we have a lot to do tomorrow.

BUT A SHOUT OUT TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED US LEARN MORE THINGS ABOUT THIS LAND AND HELPING US, THANK YOU SO MUCH. 😃
