more fun tags

I added my name to a US/Canada tag on Postcrossing and received a First Nations Cree man from the province of Alberta. Funny, the sender grew up just a few miles from where I live now...she comes home each year and so one day I may actually meet her in person!
There are many groups of Cree people; those in Alberta lived on the northern plains. Historically they would have hunted and traded with Metis (native people mixed with French).


Another tag features late prehistoric Puebloan pottery (1100-1300AD) in a form referred to as a Stirrup canteen
This postcrosser offered some interesting comments on Chief Moses, discusses in an earlier post.
