Hi Roy,

We have a large Native American community in Northern Arizona. I have seen a lot of posts about families.  But there are no more significant ties to family life.  I have learned a lot and deeply respect the traditions of the different tribes.  I have had a guided tour of the oldest known community in the US, located in Northern Arizona.  I will never forget it.

I have always had an interest in the Native American culture.  I'm glad Gaithersburg is observing Native American Heritage month.
