To all my friends and family: I had been totally lost for over the last two years. After my auto accident I didn't have the desire to go now and lived my life day to day just surviving, I lost all hope. I finally had connection with George "my brother" Singleton and he brought me so much memories that I finally felt the need to get things rolling again.
Since my Mother's (legendary Navajo/Dine' rug weaver Alice Roanhorse) death, we had learned that fence poles had been taken, our gate, and a road was made through there, and we started on it. We had attracted some other people who want to plant, but have no seed, tractor rental is extremely high and field fences, etc.
Although these people are willing to work, we have to travel 100 miles to certain parts of the Dine' (Navajo) Reservation and the cost of gas has been high and lunch for the workers. I am asking for donation of any types and we will have web pages to sell some of our art work and lithographs. My e mail is jgbegaye@yahoo.com. Thank you.
