Native American Tribe series.

 Winyaw

One of the small tribes living on lower Pedee river and its tributaries in South Carolina.  Of their language nothing is known, and very little else in recorded concerning them, as they were never prominent in history.  It is supposed, however, from their associations that they were of Siouan affinity.

They dwelt on the west side of the Pedee near its mouth about opposite the Waccamaw.  The 2 tribes ere first mentioned in 1715 as being neighbors and as receiving ammunition from the Cheraw, who attempted to induce them to join in a league against the English.  Gov. Johnson in 1715 reported them as having one village, with a population of 106.  After this they drop from history, becoming extinct as a tribe.

I love the variety of containers up here!
Today was a lesson in flexibility. My plan was to leave work on time and head up to Fort Collins for some distant caches. I overlooked the fact that I need gas to drive that far.
So, after some caching in Northfield, I compromised and started caching east of Boulder near I25. I thought, I'll grab 30 or so. But my lack of fuel cut than number to five or so. I headed to the pumps. That's when I got a little help with a puzzle... which sent me through Lafayette to the puzzle and a smiley! I noticed that several FTF's had come out earlier. Surely, I would be too far away to get them.
But the 5Miller multi was still unfound. By now it was 9:30 and I was still way up north. I can't let an FTF go. I called the CO who said "darkness won't be your friend" when finding this one. Actually, darkness is my only friend :) Challenge accepted. Made the find.

Headed out with Joe Friday today with the goal of finding at least 100 caches to earn the Hidden Creatures souvenirs. It was a hot day, but we got it done. Almost all of the caches were quick finds, with containers in good shape and well maintained logs. Not sure how we had so many unfound caches about a half hour from home, but glad we did as it allowed us to get the souvenirs fairly easily. Thanks for all of the fun placements!
