While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!
Assegun (probably from Chippewa
ŭ'shigŭn 'black bass.' W. J.) A traditional
tribe said to have occupied the region about Mackinaw and Sault Ste Marie
on the first coming of the Ottawa and Chippewa, and to have been driven by
them southward through lower Michigan. They are said, and apparently
correctly, to have been either connected with the Mascoutin or identical
with that tribe, and to have made the bone deposits in northern Michigan.
See Mascoutin.
