Day Nine: Chilling like a Villain.

Day Nine:

7/15/18

Today was a pretty chill day. We work up around 8:00am or so. We met Warren Seyler, Francis, Francis’s brother, and Jim. They came and brought their drum and sang for us. They all had shown us new songs that they sing. They even allowed us to sing at the dumb with them. It was pretty fun. After drumming we headed to the watch tower. The tower was high, and I’m afraid of heights. I sucked it up and held my breath. I went up to the top and boy that felt like a life time. The view was beautiful, but I was afraid that I was going to die. After the tower and the long trip down, we went swimming in the Spokane River. The water was perfect and it was fun swimming with most of the people. Today was just a really fun and chill day.

This is Warren Seyler.. A man who would take the world under his wing, and forever will be a long time friend.

Day One: Start of the knowledgeable trip

Day One: 7/7/18 I arrived Heritage University (HU) to prepare for the trip early in the morning around 8:30am. The HU students had already counted inventory and organized the stuff that is provided. They lend me a sleeping bag, tent, backpack (with a water pouch inside), and a headlamp. After we had done everything that was needed to carry on, we had went inside to listening to a guest speaker, Jonalee Squeochs. She talked about climate change and how it would/could affect us in the future and what how it effects the wildlife. The thing that stood out to me is how the lower Yakima valley rivers, canals, and any other water source was too hot for the salmon to come back home. That has a really bad impact on my Yakama Nation cultural ways because fish is one of the traditional foods. This had caught my attention because I participate my in cultural ways. After we had learned and recognized what we could do, we ate and then loaded up to head to the Yakama Nation Mountains to pot

Day Fourteen: Last day!!!

Day Fourteen: 7/20/18 Today we woke up at 6:30am. Breakfast was already on the table this morning. I just ate cereal and after, I made my lunch. For some odd reason, I felt like having PB and J sandwich, and I don’t like peanut butter. It was a good morning. I had some time to put my feet in the water and it was lovely. The morning was so calm, and I was able to gather my thoughts and just felt peaceful. Well after that I went to get changed out of my sweats, packed my stuff, and was ready to go. Our first stop at the old 99 county road where there was planting and thinning going on. This was one of the plots. One of the people that stood out to me is Clinton, not Mr. Clinton LOL ;) He was a firefighter forestry manager. He fought fire for 18 years. After looking at that plot, we headed to another up the road. This is a plot where they already had thinned out and didn’t clean up. It “looked bad” but in five years or so, it’ll look healthy and open. I can see how their forests are
