B次元官网网址淏all hockey tourneys at Columneetza and Sugarcane and the rink on my Rez. Hunting in the fall and dipnet fishing and packing salmon up to the truck in the summer. The Williams Lake Stampede. The rides when they came to town. The pow wows. It all holds a place in my heart. Where I came from. Where IB次元官网网址檓 from. I will never forget it. I will always hold being from there, and the people in my heart,B次元官网网址 he said.
