Today is the tenth of September, five more days until Gogiiya. The sun is rising from the east and it looks like another beautiful day in the Dulce Valley. It should be another warm with afternoon showers. The picture below is from the 1960s era and we're camped out at Gogiiya. The vehicle shown is an old International pickup my parents had way back when. We used to camp on the south side of the Gogiiya grounds by my cousins. We moved from there after my dad passed away in 1972 and have been at our present location since the 1970's. My mom had laundry strung out the sides of the tent. You can see her on the side of the tent doing something or the other. Our family has always had a camp out at Gogiiya and this year is no different, it's a time to visit with friends and eat lots of great food and celebrate another great year here on the beautiful Jicarilla Apache reservation.
