Years later I with volunteer labor of Artist/Muralist Mona Mills an old cinder block pump house, 8"x16", became the El Monte Oaks Museum at El Monte Park, Lakeside, Ca.. Since, "One picture is worth a thousand words, I have attached three photos of the El Monte and the Murals within to this BIO. During my research for the El Monte Park History I became interest in Native American life and history. This lead me to seeking Native American rock art, petroglyphs & pictographs. I self-published a book of interpretations of Native American rock art at lulu.com titled: "THE STONE SPOKE". I am a published poet. My poem titled: "F14" was published in the October 1992 issue of issue of "The Poetry Conspiracy" magazine ( painting by Mona Mills Artist illustrating the "F14" poem is attached on the topic page.
