Show - 9- PD: I don't know, probably the Utes are getting lazy to go out nowadays now. O'N: Um hum. PD: A lot of them sold their sheep and goats. O'N: Um hum. PD: There are bout three or four families own their sheep now. O'N: Was there a regular village up in Mancos Canyon or did you live scattered places? PD: Scattered places, O'N: Um hum. And did your family live alone or x- yas there other families with you? PD: Yah, sometimes we would be with the other families. We never used to stay one place all through a summer. We used to move around, probably stayed two or three weeks one place and then move onto another pasture, looking for grazing feed for our sheep so we had to move around a lot. O'N: Did you ever know the Ute folks that used to live out in here in McElmo Canyon and in YeHowjacket Canyon and in Montezuma Creek? Did you know any Ute families out in there? PD: I did, cause Grandma came from that family. O'N: I see. And what was that family called? PD: I don't know. O'Nr Which one of the canyons did they live in? PD: I think they roamed from here to Towaoc. O'N: And so they roamed all the way from White Mesa clear to Towaoc. PD: Um hum. But they used to stay over there. Had their home there. |
