COUPLE RESIDES AT ELEVEN LOCATIONS WITHIN ONE YEAR (Editor’s Note: This story was taken from the July, 1968 issue of Shoreline. Mrs. Wood is the former Vi Zamora, daughter of Nyssans Mr. and Mrs. Michael C. Zamora). How would you like to live in eleven different places within a year? This is what Earl and Vi Wood part-time residents of Holiday Shores have done for the past year. And they loved it. Woody has been in the busi ness of constructing high voltage transmission lines for 21 years and Airing that time the Woods have been constantly on the move. During the past year, be has been on a project which began in Four Corners, New Mexico and is ending at the Colorado River. Vi and Woody lived in Four Corners for four months, thes moved following the line to Fruitland, New Mexico; Ship rock, N. M., Lucachuchi, Arizona; Many Farms, Ariz.; Chinlee, Ariz.; Pinon, Ariz.; New Oraibi, Ariz.; Cameron, Ariz., Williams, Ariz.. Hyde Park, Ariz.; and Dolan Springs, Ariz. They stayed an average of one month at each place. During the 21 years Woody has spent in the business, (he W oods have traveled and lived all over the western and midwestern United States. The longest they lived in one place was one year they spent in Mesa, Arizona. Vi has kept a record of all the places they have lived and has six pages of ledger paper filled on both sides. She estimates that they have lived in 300-400 different locales. The Woods have many ex citing tales to tell about their travels. They have also made countless friends in the places they have lived. Three years ago, the Woods bought property at Holiday Shores. And two years ago, they moved their large mobile home here (they have a smaller travel trailer which they live in at the various sites; it’s now at Dolan Springs). They have been living here off and on for the past two years whenever they’ve had a chance. They look on Holiday Shores as their permanent home. Woody is having a permanent addition built to their mobile home at HS. The addition will be a large living-recreation room with a mammoth flagstone fire place at one end. Woody says, “I’ve always wanted a huge fire place and now I'm going to have It!” After finishing his current project. Woody expects to be working on various projects re lated to the powerplant being built across the river from Holiday Shores. He thinks that they might be able to locate here more or less permanently for the next seven years. He and Vi are looking forward to this. Currently Woody is foreman of the crew which erects the tower structures. But for most of the time he has been in the business he has been a line man (a job he prefers). Woody can tell you just about all there is to know about this very exacting, strenuous, and sometimes dangerous con struction business. He is cur rently working on a movie showing all aspects of the job. He says the towers vary from 18-65 tons in weight and range from 130-180 feet in height. He plans to work for quite a few more years. But when he retires Holiday Shores will be the Woods’ permanent borne. Of all the places they have lived they think they like Holiday Shores the best!
