Just met Randall, a Navajo on the road with only his feet for carriage. I gave him a couple of bucks and we exchanged blessings for the road. He gave me the gift of allowing me to take his picture (a significant honor indicating trust and respect. Or maybe he was just glad to get a couple dollars). He said he was heading back to New Mexico from Fresno. Probably trying to get home to the res.
He was proud of his tattoos. Yazzie is a common Navajo name. I knew a family with that name who were nice to me when I was doing the powwow circuit.
