El Junior - The Author

---

I grew up as a Migrant  Farm laborer in the Yakima valley of Washington State.   We worked on fruit ranches and packing warehouses during the harvest season.  

We lived in a migrant housing ( single-room cabins) with a community bathroom and showers in a small and windowless building (very cold in the winter).

I attended Washington State University and earned my undergraduate degree in Bachelor of Arts: Foreign Language and Literature with a Minor in Communications: Television & Radio Broadcasting Editing and Production.

I remember how the elders and family members would gather around after a hard day's work and light a fire in the early evening and tell Cuentos -  stories that had been handed from down from one generation to  the next.  

There was always a spooky tale of: La Llorona, La bruja del Monte, and  el Cucuy.

Helping the family pick apples to earn money!
