Team Carrie Powwow For Hope Fundraiser Is Today
And the fundraising is at an end until next year.
Tomorrow is my day to take a breath
Team Carrie Powwow For Hope Fundraiser
ends today. It is about cancer death
and about the survivor and thriver!
~
Remission is another term for life
We made it through to fight another day
In life, there will continue to be strife
We end our bids, the T-shirt sales today!
~
Next year will be here before we know it
We will try to get to the powwow then
Missing it this year I don’t like one bit!
Life happens and it can’t be helped, Amen!
~
Leukemia took my sister Carrie
way too soon, when she was just fifty-three!

Tales of the Aurora Borealis
Who knew a solar storm could be so beautiful? Purples, reds, and greens shimmering in our skies like dancing ribbons. Hypnotic and enchanting, the Northern Lights have had us humans in complete awe for centuries. Which got me thinking, what did our ancestors think of the Aurora Borealis?

I’m sorry about your sister! We used to go to POW Wows - Puyallup Tribe - and watched dances, looked at jewelry and ATE FRYBREAD. 😋😋
Do you mean that it ended early? When was it supposed to end?
This gives HOPE and then more HOPE!
