BOBOK FROG YAQUI TRIBE WINDOWS
Once in my room, I was delighted to discover that my windows opened up to a dazzling mountain view, a striking mosaic of purple and black with jaunty green saguaros gathered on every peak.
I’ll have to see if I can recognize the locations and hopefully say, “I was right there!” A recent cameo was made in the country music-infused comedy You’re Gonna Miss Me (spring 2017) , starring Eric Roberts and Morgan Fairchild. With views of the Sonoran Desert’s striking deep blues and sage greens, and the sweeping arched ceilings of the resort’s Mediterranean-style architecture, I could see why. When I asked about it at the front desk, they told me that Casino Del Sol is Tucson’s top film spot for indie films and music videos. It was my goal to check off as many as I could in a one-night stay.Īs I was checking in, I noticed a dusty film crew lugging equipment through the lobby. Managed by the Pascua Yaqui tribe, Casino Del Sol has 215 guestrooms and infinite entertainment options. Already anxious in my car, I couldn’t wait to try my luck and let it ride at the tables, jam out to live music, eat incredible food, and do pretty much anything else I felt like doing.įrom the moment the copper tower of Casino Del Sol came into view, rising from the desert sands like a glittering beacon, I could feel the energy resonating from Arizona’s only Forbes Four-Star and AAA Four-Diamond resort and casino. I had heard of a place where the only thing that limits how epic your night will be is how late you can stay up.
I set off from Central Tucson, traveling westward in search of adventure.
Then open this this unique sliver of Yaqui culture not seen in print for many a year and immerse yourself in the tales and fables of the ancient American South West.Deep in the Soul of Tucson This is where great entertainment lives, the sun never sets, and magic lives WE INVITE YOU to curl up in front of your hearth with the fire crackling and spitting. The more the pity as there is no better way of keeping a culture alive than through story telling. However, some of the older Yaquis indicate that story-telling used to be more formalised in the time of their parents or in their own youth. They also tell stories when working in the fields. Yaquis say that stories are most often told, by men or women, in the evenings when a group happens to be gathered in the ramada or in the house by the fire. Nor are there special persons who are supposed to tell the myths or tales. There is no socially determined time or place for relating the myths or tales except in the case of pascola stories, which are told at fiestas. STORY TELLING among the Yaquis is quite informal. There is also the story of the Peace At Pitahaya which was signed in 1909. the Mexican government baited the Yaquis, captured and sold them off as indentured workers then confiscated their land and moved settlers in. As such, you will also find stories of War Between The Yaquis And The Pimas and The Wars Against The Mexicans. YAQUI FOLK literature also expresses the tribe's sense of the sacred and material value of their territory, and the antiquity and distinctiveness of their customs.
