    That was great! It's amazing how creative children can be.

    Thanks, Ditter. That was awesome. I want to watch again tonight and concentrate on the scenery. That really took some coordination!

    Can you begin to imagine how much time and practice had to go into doing that, just beautiful.

    Thanks Ditter.

    IT gave me a great big smile. I am enclosing one similar that was done about 8 years ago by the Turtle Creek Chorale in Dallas, TX. I was there and laughed till it hurt.

    OH my gosh..THank you for sharing this. I have tears...My DH was the school district facility mgr out in the Lower Kuskokwim delta region for 3 years and I really miss my Y'upik friends! Quinhagak (kwin-a-hawk) is a great little village full of traditional spirit!

    Thank you so much for posting this - I have been to the far North a few times and it surely looks wonderful again - what a great school project!
