Sam's Potlatch

That is not a typing mistake. What is a Potlatch???


pot·latch  /ˈpätˌlaCH/
Noun
(among North American Indian peoples of the northwest coast) 
An opulent ceremonial feast at which possessions are given away 
or destroyed to display wealth or enhance prestige.


Verb
Hold such a feast or ceremony.

In Sam's case it was used in the "verb" sense - which is a good thing!
Here we call these events "potlucks". 

=============================================================

On the right is slow cooked moose meat (Sam said, "Interesting", and on the right is rice.




Homemade pizza (one thing I have noted is the lacking of fruits and veggies). 
I wonder if that is moose-a-roni? (bwahahahaha)







And there is the boy himself (this picture is a little dated as it was taken back on January 4, 2013)


Introductions: ("Crazy") Mary, Sam, Gabe and Esther.






Next I would like to introduce you to The Pollmans - 
Gabe, Libby, Scott (aka Peaches) - is there tech guru and will help Sam with all things computer related) 
and baby Abagail.






Here I am pleased to introduce you to Jenny Polmann, Annie Hunter, and Virginia Mae



This is Sam's math teacher, Danny, and his baby Laura....




Here is Scott and Danny with their baby girls...



And finally.... Sam and Crazy Mary keeping each other "in line"...

  1. Sam, You mentioned to me about what happens when you come across an "elder". Can you tell us more about who is considered an elder and what you have to do when you cross their path? Also, what happens if you don't play by the rules?
