“Many moons ago, tribe leave Massachusetts because Pilgrims ruin neighborhood! Tribe travel west, over stream, over river, over mountain, over mountain, over river, over stream!

Then come big day... tribe fall over cliff. That when Hekawi get name. Medicine man say to my ancestor, “I think we lost. Where the heck are we?”.

“Where the heck are we?” became “We’re the Hekawi”

Too funny.

Reminds me of the joke,

Pa where do we get our names from?

Well son, after a child is born, the fatther looks over the land, and the fist thing he sees gives him an idea of what the Child’s name should be.

Why do you ask 2 dog’s *#@^ing?
