The Road to Los Angeles: A Coming-of-Age Story of Manual

The Road to Los Angeles: A Coming-of-Age Story of Manual Labor, Family Loss, and Survival

I had a lot of jobs in Los Angeles Harbor because our family was poor and my father was dead. My first job was ditchdigging a short time after I graduated from high school. Every night I couldnâ€™t sleep from the pain in my back. We were digging an excavation in an empty lot, there wasnâ€™t any shade, the sun came straight from a cloudless sky, and I was down in that hole digging with two huskies who dug with a love for it, always laughing and telling jokes, laughing and smoking bitter tobacco.
