(Joel was missing, running off to do a few last minute things before the conference began for the day. Incidentally, I am the one wearing the green scarf.)
A good way to begin the second day of #cuchamplain: with smudging, a prayer, and songs for the 7 future generations and for thanks giving.
— Lauren Markewicz (@HistoryBoots) September 20, 2013
(The first day had also begun with the smudging of participants, a prayer in untranslated Anishinabeg, and a few songs.)
