2nd Year attending Peshabestown Pow Wow

We’ve had the privilege of attending the Peshabestown Pow Wow once again this year. We ended up going on Friday night, and again on Saturday afternoon. I can’t explain what attending this annual event does inside of us, but it definitely moves you in an incredible way. From the drums and purposeful chanting, there is a stirring that takes place in your inmost being to be still and listen to the voice in the wind.

Some people would watch and listen to this music, and think that it is just mindless savage noise. But they are so wrong! It is very purposeful and worshipful. So no matter what walk of like you come from, if you aren’t moved in some way, whether to tears, or to move your feet… driven by your heart… you are probably dead inside.

Here is a whole gallery of pictures for you to enjoy.

Ok, I can’t get the stupid video to work. I’ll play around with it later, and post it again. :(

Maria’s favorite dancer was Rose Petosky, and we asked Rose if we could take a picture of her and Maria together… and here it is:
