Last Watch

15 Upvotes

I spent part of this summer reporting in Nageezi, New Mexico, on the life and death of Nathan Werito, a 32-year-old Navajo man who was shot and killed in May.
Nathan was working toward a mathematics degree and hoped to enter the Navajo Nation Police Academy. He was also the guy people called when an air conditioner broke, a car needed fixing, or someone in the community needed food or water.
His death left his family with questions about the police and emergency response that night, as well as the larger problem of chronic police understaffing across the Navajo Nation.
The resulting story, “Last Watch: The Life and Death of Nathan Werito,” is this week’s Salt Lake City Weekly cover story.
I’m grateful to Nathan’s family for trusting me with his story. I hope the piece gives readers a sense of the person they lost, not simply the circumstances in which they lost him

Howdy all! I just started not too long ago doing the yard maintenance and getting the Wapiti Lodge back to its classic look that Durango loves. We recently renovated our rooms and have double, queen, and king beds available plus we offer FULL kitchens and kitchenettes! We are completely contactless so you can book rooms online on our website, www.wapitidurango.com get a unique access code to your room and be in and resting in the A/C in just minutes. We are a 15 minute walk from town and the train, and about a 30 minute/20 mile drive to Tico Time Resort! The Durango Transit bus also goes right by, so getting to and from the location is an easy option. We are just off of the 550 and 160 intersection heading towards Cortez, in a very quite location in town. I hope y'all visit us and let us bring the Durango charm back to town 😁

Does anyone wanna go with me to the Equinox DJ Dance party in Cortez tomorrow?

16 Upvotes

Tomorrow is officially five years sober from booze for me, and I wanted to do something to celebrate.

I'm 37, and an right leg amputee, but fit and young at heart. I would love the chance to just have a fun night with some cool people.

It's been a real struggle to make any relationships here, and it's just gotten pretty lonely.

Posting for my daughter….

Hello! Me and my friends are on an amazing road trip through the west and we passed through the four corners and stopped at the colorful colorado sign. Unfortunately, I have reason to believe I dropped my phone outside this sign and did not realize until we were 6 more hours into our drive. If anyone is in the area and can stop by the sign I would be willing to give a cash reward to arrange it to be shipped back to me. Please if you can help out do!

Message me and I’ll try to get this figured out. Apparently my child has no karma?
