Pow Wow

Ever heard of a Pow Wow? In my dictionary it was always a quick gathering, discussion, between people. But last Sunday at Stanford it was much more. It was a big gathering of Native Americans (or as my cousin's husband Scott says it in his typical political incorrect way: "Indians, feathered not dotted."

Apparently Pow Wow's are a big thing and they happen across this country all the time. There was food, art, and lots of contests including dancing and best dress (yes, with feathers.) We caught the tail end of the Pow Wow after driving along the coast first, so next time one is nearby I'll try to get more of a full Pow Wow experience.
