Jon and Autumn at Needles overlook
Katrina and her baby (click here to see her trip pics) My mom also has some nice Thanksgiving pics from the trip.
Visit with Grandma and Grandpa Burtenshaw. Jon's parents stopped there at the same time so we could take a four generation picture. They were on their way to visit the childhood home of Bernice Burtenshaw (Grandpa Burtenshaw's mom) in Mexico.
Ras and Bernice Burtenshaw. Ras was a brick maker. The family lived briefly in Bluewater, NM where Grandpa Burtenshaw was born. I imagine that the lime kiln located near Bluewater on the way to the Zuni mountains was where Ras worked. Just a guess. We often stopped by it to look for petrified wood, christmas trees, and indian ruins when I was a kid.
Bernice grew up in Colonia Diaz, a mormon colony in Mexico, which is now deserted. We wish Kaylene and David luck in finding it!
