Dear Friends: A most active day picketing Salem Alliance Church in Salem, Oregon, all filmed by Czech National TV as part of a bio about the work with the Akha people.
Family participated, www.akha.org for images. After a lively demonstration, a LOT more people at the church figured out something was going on. They began to ask questions. Met with Grand Ronde Tribal members at the Grand Ronde 24th Restoration Celebration. Michu, once again taking front and center as a representative of the Akha people in Thailand. Good stuff. We have two more press articles coming out and we will be on KBOO 91 FM in Portland, OR on the afternoon of Nov. 22. A program on genocide. I got Hampton the horse walked out in town, to see how he would do, walked him out for about five miles. The family joined me in the walk for the second 21/2 miles. From Michu to the youngest walker Ah Ngoh of 3 years. We still have a saddle and other tack to buy. Hampton handles well and does not readily spook. We are looking for a second horse for Michu. Will keep you posted. Winter is setting in, riding will be tough.
