Just thinkin' about it, ancient canoes just chillin' at the bottom of Lake Mendota for thousands of years... like they were waiting for some hipsters to come along and appreciate their retro vibes
. The idea that the builders might've chosen damaged trees on purpose is kinda mind-blowing - like they were trying to create a sustainable, eco-friendly canoe or somethin'
. And can you imagine bein' part of an ancient community that built these things? It's wild to think about all the stories and secrets that those canoes must hold
. The WHS collaboration with First Nations is awesome too - it's great to see people workin' together to preserve cultural heritage and pass on their history to the next gen
