Welcome!

After much delay, planning for the Americana Tour is back underway.  We have not been very successful in obtaining corporate funding, and private donations have not met expectations.  So, we will begin as a self financed project.  The original focus will remain the same, but the scope of the project will have to be altered significantly.

With that said…

What better way to begin our tour, than to start with our first nations tribes of Arizona.  The Navajo, Havasupai, Hopi, Cocopah, Kaibab, Apache tribes are just some of the twenty-one Indian tribes located in Arizona.  Who can forget (if you’re over 40), Cochise, chief of the Chokonen band of the Chirichua Apache nation.  These tribes were the first nations of what eventually became the United States of America and had a great influence on our history.

Many of our National Parks and National Monuments are located on tribal land in Arizona.  The Grand Canyon National Park, Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, and Canyon de Chelly National Monument  are just a few that we will be visiting in October and November this year.
