Indian Names

What's in a name? Nat. Geo. had this in the magazine a few issues ago, but here it is in its resplendent digital form. Pretty neat at first glance but the real revelation is one of local interest. Our very own Loleta has a racy past. I'll let you see for yourself.

I posted that map in my classroom, where every viewer beamed right in on Loleta!

i will never think of the Loleta Cheese Factory the same way again...and I think Malibu might be wonderfully named.
