The La Jara Gazette

 I'm not sure why we have this newspaper, but we do.  I have read the entire copy and can find no reason for us to have it.  No name is in it that I recognize.  Here's what I think happened.  It is a newspaper from the area from which my Mother's family came.  The name of the actual town was Sanford Colorado.  There is news of Sanford on the inside.  If you ask anybody from Colorado today, where is Sanford, they look at you with blank looks.  Anyway, I'll bet my Grandmother, Nana, or Aunt Maude had the paper sent to them to get news from the home front.  That's my best guess.  I have to tell you, it is a little treasure, though, this newspaper.  I don't have time to go into it, but it is really special.
