Hot pow-wow.....

Went to the pow-wow yesterday after we got done working...I always go see my friends when they invite me....Star,C.R., Eli, Tommy, W.P., Silver.....It wasn't just one tribe it was several...some kinda gathering pow-wow....but anyway we went...

Some had their teepees set up and some lazy butts like W.P. just had camping tents set-up....lol....Everyone was laughing about that....hey, modern comanche!...haha...They had made food, some kinda corn stuff and indian tacos, buffalo burgers and other stuff...

me & Sarah sat in Eli's teepee....they are great for keeping out the sun and they are ventilated because the bottom of the teepee isn't staked down all the way totally to the ground(you know the teepee never actually touches the ground where it's anchored)....anyway...his teepee was blue-red....if i had a teepee mine would be royal blue on the outside and the inside would be sky blue or yellow!...haha...i told him that yesterday and he goes:"Hey,sounds pretty! maybe you should have designed this..next year jules, next year".....LOL...yes,i'm a dork.....

i don't know how they all had the pow-wow in the heat it was 113 yesterday! and that is NO heat index...the thermometer in the truck read 125 with the windows down....this is craziness....it lasted all day and they still danced...it must be hot with their dancing stuff on, the headress, beads, feathers...but the face paint is made from stuff that is good sunscreen....we even painted our faces...Star painted our faces for us...mine was blue with white & red.....

at one point at about 3pm everyone dancing got so hot they were all getting weary and C.R. said:"That's it i quit this thing, its too damn hot man!"....but they did manage to make it rain, i think, because there was a rain shower at 4pm after the rain dance....just didn't last long enough or go anywhere...*sad face*

Eli said he thought it was funny to finally see Apaches & Comanches all together getting along...LOL....you know how they always talk about each other....

I'm not an F.B.I.(full-blood-indian) Cherokee, my great-grandparents on Grandma's side were F.B.I. Cherokee indians...My Grandma is a F.B.I. Cherokee...and my Grandpa has some cherokee & comanche....
 
Indian Bloodlines are a touchy subject because so many stupid people go around wanting to be indian to get money and they make up that they are, or because they are some kinda new-age weirdos that think it would be the cool thing to be part indian, they don't look indian or know anything about the tribes...

Believe me, some nuts are always claiming to be indian even here in Oklahoma people move here from far away, and start saying that to get money or attention and they will look very European....it shows in your face features if you are in the blood-line....they only look like idiots and are very despised amongst the tribes...they get irate about those people....it's stupid...

Oh!..i met a guy yesterday with the last name RainCloud...cool..i'd love to have a name with "rain" in it...Julia RainCloud...haha...i like that...or Julia RainDrop?...bwahaha...ok, i'll stop but it would be an awesome name to have...yes, i'm a dork....i do know some people with the last name Dancing Cloud & Rain Water...

it was fun i guess..just a hot pow-wow..

we're all about the rain around here,wishing, hoping,praying,dreaming...

off to work before the sun wakes up.

xoxo
Eli says that i come from a good strong bloodline..and why i am so intuitive, have those dreams,premonitions...it's a gift he says..because everyone with that much in their blood has the gifts....if i could only make it rain!!! ;)
