Lummi elder Ted Solomon, holding a traditional cedar bark hat, stands on the shore of Stommish Beach to welcome arriving canoes at the Lummi Indian Reservation, Washington on July 30, 2007. Canoes, coming as far as Alaska, were ceremoniously welcomed by the Lummi Nation, hosts of the 2007 Canoe Journey. Dancing, singing and "potlatching" followed for a week until the canoes left for their return voyage on August 5. Solomon teaches Lummi language and cedar basket weaving.
