CB, I have many fond memories of childhood trips into the Ojibway country of Minnesota: canoeing on sky-blue waters, campfires, birches and pines, loons, beaver, racoons, swallowtail butterflies, leopard leeches, wood ticks, poison ivy, mosquitos, etc. Here's a couple of classic books I picked up at the Mille Lacs Trading Post a few years ago for some historical background on these people...
History of the Ojibway People (by William W. Warren)

P.S. The DNA/genealogy thing has been on my "to do" list for a while. Some day I'll get to it. |
