August 1936. "Example of self-resettlement in California. Oklahoma farm
family on highway between Blythe and Indio. Forced by the drought of
1936 to abandon their farm, they set out with their children to drive to
California. Picking cotton in Arizona for a day or two at a time gave
them enough for food and gas to continue. On this day they were within a
day's travel of their destination, Bakersfield. Their car had broken
down en route and was abandoned."
Pride is right. Just look at these people. They have driven from Okalahoma to California. You know that they propbably didn't have the money to stay in hotels,probably just living on the road. Plus they've broken down, but look how clean and put together they look. They probably used filling stations to wash up in. If it was today, the dress of the day would be jammies and sweats.
