Upcoming Pow Wows, Holiday Gift Guide and more on PowWows.com


I'm checking in from California today. I'm currently tucked away in my hotel room at Disneyland.

Kelli’s here for a travel agent conference, learning all the good stuff about the industry, so I’ve been tagging along. While she’s been in classes, I’ve been hopping into the parks, soaking up the holiday decorations, grabbing a few treats, and yes… squeezing in a little laptop time back in the room.

Entrepreneur life means playing and working blend together, but I’m not complaining. It’s been a fun week.

Quick reminder before we jump into everything below.

There’s still time to join the Explore Native Challenge. We’ve got about a week left and the prizes are no joke. We’re talking Eighth Generation blankets worth over $250 each.

If you haven’t entered yet, now’s the moment. Don’t let this one slip past you.

Thanks,

Native American Tattoos: 50 of the Most Intricate Designs
