    10- the traveler of 1942 with his worldly possessions, at the Idaho state line on hwy 91, now hwy 15. Just like my grandad’s brother (1921-2013) who served in the Army in his teens before the war 1938-1940, and during Ww2 he went traveling across the west in his trusty Nash-Lafayette to work as a lumberjack in the spring and fall in Idaho, Oregon and Wyoming, a miner in the winter in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and Utah and a defense plant worker in California in the summer.
