Amazing !!

Luwana is great! Last weekend she was weaving a fishing basket in honor of the Hitch returning to Lake County streams. Her abilities in twining with willow shoots is great. This is a great chance to step back in time and watch an activity that was a daily occurance in Lake County for the past 10,000 years.
