It is almost incomprehensible what people went through. But they did survive. Lots of them did anyway. <br /><br />And that does make me realize we WILL survive the hard times we are in also.Joyce Moyer Hostetterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05153114928220349251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524422010346970111.post-65619400344219572782010-07-15T07:54:14.652-04:002010-07-15T07:54:14.652-04:00I think the dust bowl years are facinating.I think the dust bowl years are facinating.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05137376814809045698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524422010346970111.post-15179623360400839952010-05-11T16:30:29.711-04:002010-05-11T16:30:29.711-04:00I think it was a metaphor for how long it was taki...I think it was a metaphor for how long it was taking the migrants to cross the country and how tired they were.

...Becky, you never finished The Grapes of Wrath?!<br /><br />That's it! I'm taking my books and going home. <br /><br />Truthfully, I haven't read it for decades and don't even remember the turtle crossing the road. It must represent something important, though.
