root digging

May 12 was the day we all set out to go get our native on and dig roots. By we i mean all the students at wellpinit that wanted to go. It was quite a long ride i thought. I would keep falling asleep then waking up. It was actually quite difficult. but anyhow. umm. when we got there we had to travel in groups so the bears wouldn't come and get us. no i'm joking there wasnt quite enough tools for everyone to have one. the tool i am typing about is this t shaped thing that we used to help us dig for camus the root we wanted. lol and the plant part that sticks up is green and has some red things sticking out. kinda. my group consisted of Rosa, Empy, Jacob, Litcell, and michael we called ourselves the clan. i guess. and i'd jus like to say it was pretty alright. i think we all had a fun time....maybe? =P lol
but ya the camus basically this round looking dirty bulb thing when you take it out of the ground. it's not exactly perfectly round or huge like a light bulb, but possibably the size of a raddish. the taste is hard to explain for me. but i think their great. all you do is rub all the dirt off of it and the skin stuff thats on it and eat it. or you can cook it. yummy! =]
but ya i think i answered all the questions....?
