2 FEBRUARY 15, 2003 Smoke Signals Dear Smoke Signals, I was very surprised to see my photo in the 2001 Tribal Annual Report. Thank you for the honor, but I feel obligated to state that I am not a "master" weaver yet. I am very dedicated to the art of weaving and will teach anyone what I have learned so far. But I must protest that I am not a master. To claim this title of master weaver would not honor those who truly are master weavers. Thank you for bestowing me with this wonder ful title, but I believe that "dedicated teacher and learner" would better fit. Sanda L.
