Hey geuss what. Ok, I'll tell you. For scouts I went to Chief Seattle's grave. We learned a lot about him. Seattle was named after him because he fought there to help the people in Seattle. He was the Chief of the Suqamish tribe. I saw his grave too. The grave had a rusted lighter and a lit bottle rocket. At one grave there were some beer bottles. At that grave yard there was a grave outlined by wood and in the middle of it there was a tall grave stone. I went to see what it was, and saw that the man that was buried there died at 101 years old and he was the last chief of the Suqamish tribe. On a grave, a person died at age 18.(sad huh.) We also went to a house that the tribe made called the "Long House" and the "Old Man House". They built that it by Agate Passage bridge but now it is gone. They are going to build a copy. My friend John said "I hate copies".
His mom, the Wolf den leader, said "John thats not nice".
Then John said "Well it's true, the real thing is better than the fake one".
Suqamish also mean clear salt water so when you look at the Agate Passage you can see that the water is crystal clear.
Long live Chief Seattle

That sounds awesome Micah! I agree with your friend though...the real deal is usually better...sort of like french bread, the stuff in France, always taste better than what you can buy here in the states, or diamonds, fake are never better! =) Have a great day!
