Hayash mersi khapa kanawi-lhaksta pus uk dret lhush Neah Lu7lu!

[Dave Robertson]

LhaXayam,

A big thank-you to everyone for the really good Neah Lu7lu!

Maria, Janine, Helma, and MCRC folks, you really outdid yourselves.

Thank you very much for your hard work (on short notice!), for your songs, for the Makah Ili7i t-shirts, and for your hospitality.

Thanks also to Grand Ronde for bringing a nice big crew of Chinuk Wawa learners and teachers.  Alhqi hayu msayka!

We've got a high standard to live up to at next year's Lu7lu.

Dave

PS:  This gathering really was put together with little advance notice and little planning, so I understand Nadja's frustration.  I know you'd offered to help work on this year's Lu7lu, Nadja, and hopefully you'll still be willing to help next time!

PPS:  The dictionary is actually a project that Henry and Tony are doing, and it's steadily progressing toward a final form.  Anything I've been working on is in my spare time, and has been mostly academic research lately.
