Donated by the Wojack family in honor of our uncle John. He lived in Minneapolis, MN, but had to leave the city every summer due to his hay fever allergy. His first stop was always the hot, dry climates of the American Southwest to recover his health—Southern California, Arizona, and New Mexico. Then he would visit us at wherever the family was stationed by the US Air Force and bring us Southwestern-themed gifts—dolls, marionettes, jewelry, blankets, sombreros!
