I sincerely hope you and your students are able to safely continue the learning process.

Sadly (because I am not well informed) I searched for the TON Reservation and found it to be the Tohono O'odnam Nation, identified as the second largest Indigenous land holding in the United States. Thank you for helping me to learn today, what I should have known yesterday.

I also had to research "Gov. Butter Pecan" where I found your Governor of Arizona (doug ducey) who was the former CEO of Cold Stone Creamery (based in Scottsdale, Arizona)...thus, I enjoyed your most-cute reference!

Side Note:
I visited a Cold Stone store (once), but never purchased anything because I don't want folks 'playing' with my food.
