If Harry wasn’t already married, I’d ask for his hand.  I mean, we are in Utah, so I could be wife #2.  I feel like Harry called me sweetheart enough times for us to be in a common law marriage, but that might not fly in court.  Regardless, he wants to take me hiking and camping and prospecting and I am so fucking down.Interview highlights:+ 92 yrs-old and sassy since day 1, 1929+ Apache father, Aztec mother, Chumash grandmother, Cherokee wife+ working a 1000-acre ranch at 7 yrs-old+ how to catch wild mustangs (also works with men)+ saving your siblings from a hard life+ being hunted with a rifle by your dad+ Malibu in 1942+ Military: Guam, Korea, Seattle+ saying no to Hollywood+ maintaining personal freedom+ hobbies that become opportunities+ how to claim BLM land+ gold, silver, and titanium+ doing something because it gets into you+ Harry schools me on monetizing this project+ directions told by natural landmarks (a fading Sapien talent)+ inborn entrepreneurial spirit+ how Native Americans have been treatedA taste:“I’m not going to lay down and die, that’s for damn sure!
