Nice series.? I like that part of the country.? Last time I was in 
Canyon De Chelly we took a guided tour of the valley.? Our guide told us 
some not too nice things about Kit Carson, who was one of my childhood 
"heros".? Well, we were going to Taos a few days later and I told our 
guide I would spit on Carson's grave, so I found it and did.? He was not 
too nice to the Indians for real reason.? Ah, how history differs 
depending on what side you are on.
