Young Talent

When we travel we never know what will happen going down the road or in the next campground. When we did the "White House" hike here in Canyon De Chelly, last Thursday,  Mary wanted to buy a stone etching from one of the artists at the bottom of the canyon. Only problem was we left our money back in our trailer. "No problem", said the artist, "I'll deliver it to your trailer"

Well, Thursday night, the stone etching was delivered, not by the artist but by a friend. Turns out the friend's son is quiet an accomplished stone carver at the young age of 13. "Bring him over.  We want to see what he does."  So last night, just after supper the whole family showed up and we had a wonderful time.

Ramone explains his work to Mary. There is a story with every etching.

Kim and Anita, our camping neighbours,  checked out some samples as well.

We had a lovely visit with mom and dad and their three wonderful children. Thanks for stopping by.
