mom and i helped my uncle howard campaign outside on the reservation today. all day. sitting in the freezing cold wind. sharp spits of sand whipping our faces and eyes. it was difficult to sit there all day. but we did.and now i'm back in the city. exhausted and dusty. laying under the blankets eating halloween candy.
we sat there under a canopy and gave out free food and drinks and a little place to eat at. green chile mutton stew, coffee, soda, water, fry bread and chile. and a lot of people came by to chat and eat. there were so many who told us they supported obama. and we sat there. sometimes the convo was spoken in only navajo. other times, they would speak navajo-english hybrid language. and my poor rusty navajo brain was trying its best to keep up.
