One of the most important times of my life was the summer I spent doing migrant farm labor across the United States. It is a treasured experience, one that contributed significantly to making me the person I am today.
During fall of 2015, I was looking through the scrapbook I put together after that summer. It occurred to me that I could share the whole story of that journey, primarily using the words I wrote in 1970.
Below you will find the links to each post in the series.

I just finished the first installment and scheduled it to come out 5 a.m. on Friday (PST). I leave for India this morning so needed to schedule it before I left since I will be in transit!
