Note: This web page is still a work in process. There is much to be done with it, but we wanted to go ahead
and let you start enjoying what we have done with it thus far. We are still working on the captions and the ordering of the photos and of the events. We may add some more things and take away a few things. And...you never know when someone will stop by with a photo that just has to be added to the page. When we are mostly done with it we will probably slice the page into two or three linked web pages on the event so that each web page will be easier for those of you (and there are many) on a "dial-up" Internet connection and are having long waits on this page and having to hit refresh or reload several times in order to get it all. Sorry about that.
So very much happens at a Pow Wow...and we have some super photos so....we are going to use 'em!
