Yah Ta Hey.
Right now I am in New Mexico for a few days. One of the radio stations provides a newscast in Navajo. Another station in either Gallup, NM or Winslow, AZ broadcasts in Navajo. I think there may be just a couple of Codetalkers from WWII still alive.
My mother, who taught at the Indian School in Santa Fe, NM, really enjoyed her job. I recall her bringing home a couple of books phonetically written in Navajo. She bought some Navajo art, rugs and jewelry starting in the early 1940's. It is interesting how their art, rugs and jewelry have changed over the years. The Navajos I have met and know are wonderful people!
