I promised my niece that I would take her to a Pow Wow over the weekend, the same one that I took her to last year. It’s a 2 hour drive over several mountains, but worth the time and effort. We left early this year in order to get there nice and early, to get good seats. Took a cooler full of cold drinks, a soft blanket and a tent for shade. We learned our lesson last year and wanted to come prepared this year.
It was a blast, but the temperature was in the high 90’s and we really were very miserable, along with the other several hundred people that attended. It didn’t end until 6:00pm but by 2:30 most people had left due to the heat and we headed out early as well. This heat wave has been horrible. I mean it is only June for heaven’s sake, not mid August!
Next year if the weather isn’t decent we won’t be attending. I’ll be looking for a Pow Wow that is held inside where we will be nice and comfortable in a controlled environment.
