River in Canyon

Poem by Coyote @CoyoteSing

down a dirt road
I barely remember
how deep I must go
into this canyon
to find the river

Household # 2 - Vastine L. BRYAN

Household # 2 in River Portal on the 1910 census has a man who was listed on a tunnel hierarchy organizational chart as the "storekeeper".  I haven't been able to find him on the 1920 census.
