Just a little herstory...

Pictured in above (L to R): Chief Pasqual, my great grandmother Evelyn Dugan, my grandmother Denise Dugan, and my mother Angela Strickland.

From this lineage also came Evelyn Dugan the mother who bore Denise Dugan, Denise Dugan bore Angela Strickland and Angela Strickland bore, Tamara Ravelo the one who now lives to share our story and is the hope of her ancestors prayers. 

A small Peek Into my rez life

THE BOARDING SCHOOL BUILDING

My grandma worked in this building that is now dilapidated. I often would visit her here. It was was a boarding school building operated by the Catholic Church until 1900. It holds so many memories and still exist today.

WHERE I LIVED ONCE

This is one of the residences (updated now) where I lived on the reservation when I was younger. It is surrounded by fields and can be seen from the I-8 highway. When the farmers would plant crops, we would just go out back and grab a few pieces.


THE MEDICINE WHEEL

When my grandma was alive she often had this around her neck. When I asked her what it was for she said "for healing." Sometime later she explained it more. I now have it and cherish it. I only bring it out during sacred times.
