Originally posted by Parallax That could be your Native American day. Take your tobacco ties,and leave them tied to the fence somewhere, you'll see many places where others have done so.
it's a lovely walk, long enough to break up a drive, but not so long as to be arduous. And on the drive up to the park, you can see sage growing on the hill sides. The four most sacred Native American herbs are Tobacco, Sweet Grass, Cedar and Sage. This type of sage was once a trade item, that could be used as currency all over North America. It makes a really good smudge, if you dry it and burn it like incense. Take some scissors and cut a plant. It will grow back if you don't disturb the root. If you do this, be sure and spread a bit of tobacco on the ground where you cut it, to thank the earth for it's gift.
This site has been in use as a place for Native American rituals for over 6 thousand years.
