Dwamish

What is now Seattle has been inhabited since the end of the last glacial period (c. 8000 BCE—10,000 years ago). Sites in Discovery Park (in Seattle's Magnolia district) date back at least 4,000 years. Villages at the then-mouth of the Duwamish River had been inhabited since the 6th century CE. Thirteen prominent villages were in what is now the City of Seattle. The people living around Elliott Bay, the Duwamish, ere collectively known as the doo-AHBSH, "People of the Inside" There were four prominent villages on Elliott Bay and the then-estuarial lower Duwamish River. Before civil engineering, the area had extensive tidelands, abundantly rich in seafoods.

The people living around Lake Washington were collectively known as the hah-choo-AHBSH, "People of the Large Lake"  At the time of initial major European contact, these people considered themselves distinct from the related People of the Inside, with whom they are joined in today's Duwamish tribe. With ever-increasing European contact, the People of the Large Lake and the People of the Inside became unified under the rubric of the Duwamish Tribe.

After some geocaching east of Denver, I grabbed some quick ones in Thornton on my way home.
This was one of them.

LOL, how does peace love pi convince me to do crazy stuff like I did today??? She is challenge obsessed, and found one where on the anniversary of when you started caching you find a cache for every year you’ve been caching. Sigh. I started caching on February 19, 2012, so I need 7 caches. On a day where the high is supposed to be 24. Should I wait until next year? I mean, what’s the difference between 7 finds and 8 finds? Then I got the reminder email on Monday night. Game on…

Heading to pick up the kiddo and the temp has dropped to about 19 degrees. Still with flurries! My plan is to get 2 more before picking her up and then a puzzle for the last one. I hate when I see people poo-poo this kind of cache, cause let me tell you this was perfect for today. I parked as close as humanly possible and made the grab. Glad I signed the log in the car, as it seemed like a lot of cars come around this corner. Signed fast and was on my way. Six down, one to go. Whoo hoo! Thanks for the smiley! Find #3214
