DO WE HAVE COMPANY?

Wednesday, May 02, 2007

I am just not going to let this retainer thing go. I know I should just be happy that it's back. But it is really super weird that I remember nothing about its return.

Did some digging on our property and found that some archaeological studies had been done on it in the late 90s, when it was called the Shelley property (OK that's also weird). Because some people named Shelley owned it. They were cattle people.

And what did I find out? The area was inhabited by the Kumeyaay Indians as a temporary camp over a span of hundreds of years. Maybe some of them are still hanging around?

That is really interesting! I have heard on numerous occasions that the Kumeyaay were notorious teeth grinders, and would constantly search out ways to keep themselves from grinding their teeth.

Maybe you need to tell the Kumeyaay that you were Sauk-Taum-Quaed and that you went all the way up through Triple-T's at Camp Pegnita. They might appreciate that and leave you alone.
How, how, how, ugh!
