Does anyone know what happens with eight otters?
That vaguely reminds me of something I read in a book of native American indian stories I posted here (or was going to) but I can't seem to find it. Something about an otter dance. I will try to look again and let you know, JayCeeEll. You wouldn't know anything about the history of it, would you? Were your parents familiar with any particular culture that might help me?
