When this post hits emails, we will be on the road, heading to our first stop in Elk City, Oklahoma, where we will stop for the night before the final leg to Navajo Nation!
Weather is predicted to be in the low 90s during the day and low to mid 50s at night. So, sweaters are going in the suitcase! Again, we thank all of you that are following us, supporting us, and praying for us on this journey. Next you will hear from us on the road!
Oh, and as an update to a previous post regarding the remaking of "Star Wars" in the Navajo language, many of the key roles have now been cast.
Terry Teller, of Lukachukai, Ariz. will be the voice of Luke Skywalker.
Anderson Kee of Cottonwood, Ariz. will be the voice of Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Clarissa Yazzie of Rock Point, Ariz. will be the voice of Princess Leia.
James Junes of Farmington, N.M. is the voice of Han Solo - and one of the very few experienced actors to win a part. Junes is part of the comedy team James and Ernie, and has had roles in low-budget films on the Navajo Nation.
Marvin Yellowhair of N.M. is the voice of Darth Vader.
James Bilagody of Ariz., another experienced performer, is the voice of General Tarkin.
The Navajo voice of C-3PO is a surprise scheduled to be revealed on July 3rd.
The film production in the Navajo language was done to help in the preservation of this amazing language.
