One day I went out for Hike and I came upon this old Chrysler with a decal sticker on the trunk of the car that reads, " Used Cars - Kayenta Auto Sales - Kayenta, Arizona" I was amazed to something from my past, it was amazing to see this decal. I set my backpack down, and took out my camera along with my two L.E.D. flash lights and started taking pictures. The two young people with me were trying to figure out what caught my attention. They came over and I immediately told them to hold my flashlights while I took several pictures.
I asked them if they knew about Kayenta having a used car dealership. They had no clue, they were young after all and it was before their time. I started telling them about, how this used auto sales was located near Golden Sands. In the 80's there was a small trading post there, that sold gas, animal feed and other stuff, it was called Burch's Trading Post.
These young people couldn't believe it was even there, I explained remnants of the foundation are still there. It was great seeing them think about it.
Because they showed an interest in this, I decided to post it on this Blog.
