The pictures of Sheila and me by the old trailer, the scraggly Christmas tree, and the burros were taken in the midst of the Navajo Desert between Gallup and Farmington--when Daddy worked for The Bookout Construction Co.  That company laid Highway 666 from from Gallup to Farmington, and families followed the crew.  No running water, no indoor toilets, no electricity....All drinking water and bath water was hauled in by a large truck and we had to carry water for all necessities.
