it snowed last nite and more is expected. or as my mother used to say ‘nesh na geh e pok’ –because its winter.  well i guess that is one way to look at it. it is after all winter. gotta expect snow sometime.

the tribes road grader cleared my drive. i appreciate that. i remember being snowed in for 4 and a half days once. its not like that anymore. they really make an attempt to get to everyones house now.

i may go walking into the timber later to see if i can scare up some rabbits. ko nu gish will probably follow me. he wont let me go anywhere without tagging along. my little heeler pup wont be around to follow. someone ran over the little critter. thats 75 bucks down the drain. i will get another one later. kinda wish i had some beagles to hunt rabbits with.

when i was young and we had plenty of rabbits i would walk all day to hunt them. i remember back then before per caps we would put bread sacks over our socks before putting on our shoes. that would keep our feet dry and prevent them from freezing. we didnt have good boots like today. poor injuns had to make do with what was available. them days are gone but not forgotten.

we would skin any rabbits we shot and hang them in the cold for a few days. this would cure them and make them taste good. i did this a few years back. i hung about 5 rabbits on nails in my carport. i came home hungry for rabbit cuz i knew they were ready. thing was there were no rabbits hanging anymore. someone came along and glommed onto my cured rabbits. such is life.

we have some ceremonies coming up. should be able to get thru even with more snow coming. we always make do.
