My name is Dorothy. My family and I are currently headin' home to Kansas. There's five of us. Me, Mama, Papa, Uncle Jim, and Aunt Sue. We're all farmers.
We've been in California for a while. The Dust came and blew us away, but we're comin' back. Mama says we comin' back cause she misses home. Papa says them Cali folk never gave us a reason to be there. I just miss home and the Farm.
I've been recording our times for the past seventeen years. They were a rough times, but we made it thru. Which is why, I'd like to share our story of Livin' in the Dust.
