This is a picture of the road that comes down to Bitter Springs from Page.  At the top of the picture is thew area where most of the Navajo sell their beads. 
This highway is owned by the Navajo Tribe.  The argue who can give tickets on the road and now who is going to fix the road.  It is a mess. 
In the bottom picture our house is to the left and down the mountain.  We can see the bottom of the slide from our kitchen window. The estimate for getting this mess cleaned up is 3 to 9 months if they  can ever quit fighting over who is going to fix the mess.
It was not an earthquake.  It was a "geologic event"  which is a nice way of saying Navajo engineering.e
Th kids have to travel an extra four hours a day to get to school.  They are looking for places to hold school in the valley.  The car traffic in our area has been reduced from 100 cars and trucks a day to 10.
