Baldo by Hector D. Cantú and Carlos Castellanos for July 16, 2016

ApikorosI agree and used the example of Kit Carson. He signed on the Frémont expedition shortly after his wife had died and insisted on a tipi rather than an army tent. However, the tipi was a woman’s property and responsibility and they had to bribe an Indian woman to teach him the relatively simple procedures of erecting and striking that portable house..I learned to cook from childhood; my wife taught me to sew (beyond simple stitching, and I immediately made all my bags, pack, sleeping bag, tent, and an anorak for camping); but I insisted on diapering with the corners sticking out like ears rather than risk sticking my babies with the pins (that was 1959 and 1961, things were more primitive back then).
