<p>What fun we had this morning on Tillicum Wawa! Lively discussion and music, chanting and ukelele playing...</p>
<p>Truly, there was a mixture of people! We had a man in his 20's and one almost 80. I loved that a strong native woman led the show with her son sitting in, playing ukelele before he heads off to adventure on the Islands.</p>
<p>John Talley honored us with a rare appearance at the station and told a couple of great stories.</p>
<p>We had a chance to talk with our friends, Iokepa, Hawiian spirtiual leader of the Return Voyage and his wife, Inette a gifted writer and journalist.</p>
<p>They were wonderful to have on the show sharing their thoughts on sacred sites, and other topics as well as excerpts from Inette's new book of memoirs,"Grandmothers Whisper".</p>
<p>Emily totally rocked at engineering the show, so adaptable and professional!</p>
<p>I hope everyone listening enjoyed it as much as I did co-hosting it with you and Shusli!</p>
