My aunt. I recall her and my uncle George Batchelor visiting us in New Mexico at the trading post my parents owned.. They flew in on George's twin Beech plane landing on dirt road in front of post. This was near Chaco Canyon Natl. monument at the time. I remember her looking around our small house and remarking, "Oh, how quaint!"

Thank you Mr. Batchelor for that recollection. Like Carson always said, "That's good stuff."

Was 1971 the year for women's lib? The song I remember best from that year is Helen Reddy's I am Woman.

1971 was a really good year. (My first year of high school)
Donna, I can't say with any degree of certainty that it was THE definitive year for women's liberation, as the movement became mainstream over many years from the late 60's into the early 70's. Cheers

[@MisterCanning]

I'm sorry...not anytime in the foreseeable future.
