Blowfly went inside; he saw a deer lying dead and went in through its nose.
As soon as he had sat down, he began to eat that dead deer lying there.
the old people, some of them, they were getting elderly (couldn't travel any more) and then...
"That land lying there is floating," they thought.
They learned when it (the land) comes up and when it goes back down.
And then they stayed there, they studied it to see at what time...
...it's going to raise back up again, what (the land which) disappeared (under the water).
...then more people left to where the (island) is floating.
They worked on the canoes that they (the first people who came across) were making and then...
And then over there (back on the other side) they arrived back there (in canoes).

And then they said: "(As for) some people (that came across), they really (in a big way) don't have any common sense. They never thought 'Hey, let's go back after them,' their elders."
As for them, they took off running somewhere, don't know where.
And then as for them, they came back after their elders (these people who came back across).
And then I guess he is their leader,

And then they are going toward it (the land), and into the canoes the old people put in all of their (stuff, belongings).
And then after that they started travelling.
Going south along the coast they travelled.
after some time, they rested -- they lived temporarily in various places (as they travelled, during the winter).
And then the leader said: "Right here!
...we're going to follow this stream here."
We're going to go to that land that was made for us.
They traveled along that stream ("in the wash of that stream"), up and over the hill.
We're going over the hill to our destination (the place that we are going).
And then their leader said "Now it is time for us to leave."
And then the leader told them: "The Creator doesn't want you to live here.
You have to keep going to that land he has given you.
And then you won't become part of the people going to Hoopa Valley
where the river comes around the land, they said:
he (the leader) said, "There, it will become your land, 'Fawn's-face-sticking-out-place' (we'll call it)."
And then they went along downriver.
He (the Creator) made the dances for them.
"As for them," the Creator said: "Redwood Creek people can't stand (on holy ground).
For that reason, a long time ago it wasn't done for Redwood Creek people to dance.
Even today, we're supposed to live on this land that was made ours (given to us).
Nobody knows how we came to Hoopa (anymore).

And then, as for her, she used to know how to ride a motorcycle.
