A memoir of a year spent on the San Juan River
San Juan Marina near Oljato in Monument Valley, Utah, was an isolated place in 1987 when the author and her husband arrived to manage the new marina on the San Juan River arm of Lake Powell. They fell in love with the surroundings and the Navajo people and culture they encountered. In addition to the daily joy and satisfaction of friendship and hard work, the couple dealt with floods and siltation, murder and drug-runners, and graft, greed and corruption. Note: It's impossible for modern river runners to float on down to the marina site at Paiute Farms. Below Clay Hills Crossing, there is the river-wide pourover, Fatt Falls, and the river/lake level has fallen so the water no longer flows near the bay in which the marina was located. 176 pages, 5.5" x 8", softcover, 4 pages of color photos. 0-9795055-0-X.
