“Just too much to explore!”
Cathy T, RN
Grand Canyon, Arizona

I am working Labor & Delivery in Chinle, AZ on the Navajo Reservation.
My original assignment was for 13 weeks but I extended because there is just
too much to explore in the area! My favorite photogenic place so far is
Monument Valley, scene of many western movies and car commercials! John Wayne
made his film ‘Stagecoach’ here as well as other John Ford movies.

We took a tour with Benny, a Navajo guide, and he took us onto the the back
roads into majestic rock formations, like the ‘Big Hogan’ which is called that
because it resembles the shape of a traditional Navajo dwelling complete with
a smoke hole on the top. We also met Susie Yazzie, a 92-year-old native woman
who was in the movies here with ‘The Duke’. She still weaves traditional rugs
and demonstrated the technique for us.

The other photos are from Canyon de Chelly (just 5 minutes from where
I’m staying), Mesa Verde Colorado and Hubbell Trading post in Ganado,
AZ (30 minutes from Chinle).

Humor

“I was in a customer’s home one afternoon and while I was talking to the
customer, their 4 year old little girl whose name was Michelle, tugged on
my pants leg and excitedly exclaimed, “I got a new bicycle, do you want
to see it?”

I said, “Sure Michelle.” So off to the backyard we went. Upon getting into
the backyard, I saw a brand new girl’s bicycle. “Boy, Michelle!! That’s a
beautiful bicycle.” I complimented. “Can you ride it?”

“Yeah, I can ride it,” she said, then with a sad face she pouted,
“but it’s broke.”

I looked at the new bicycle and couldn’t see anything wrong with it,
so I asked her, “What’s wrong with it?”

“I don’t know,” she shrugged, “but every time I ride it, it falls down!”
