Sunday, April 12, 1964 The Frances Hubbard Diaries

April 12, 1964
Sunday, windy drive, in dust storm all day.  Left Grants N.M. 7:15, made Albuquerque N.M. ate breakfast in a lovely place ( Pancake House). East hilly, rocky, then evergreens, lower elevation greener.  Stayed in Sayre Oklahoma, dust storm worse.
Comment:  They did some "trucking", about 500 miles in a dust storm.....Woody Guthrie chronicled the hardships of the migrant workers and small farmers during the dust Bowl era ...here is the Wicki article about him and his songs:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_Bowl_Ballads
