DAYseventeen – 365 Days of photos

Its a bird, its a plane… no its an Inuksuk!

011 Like our miniature Inuksuk?  Today is Aboriginal Day and the girls and I headed to the Civic Centre for the Celebrations this afternoon.  The girls each picked up a little Inuksuk Puzzle that we put together.  I couldn’t resist taking a picture!

Traditionally constructed out of stones to show weary hunters and travellers the way home, to mark places of significance, to caution danger, and also to assist with herding of Cariboo for hunting purposes the Inuksuk now stands for hope and unity.

Happy Aboriginal Day!
