“We’re making it. We’re a good family. ... We’re closer” said Craig Taylor, second from right, of the journey his family is making from Oklahoma City to Flagstaff, Ariz., where he hopes to find work. Taylor said he and his family left home two weeks ago after his plumbing business failed and they lost their house. They’ve been in town two days as of Sunday morning. From left, are Christina Taylor, 16; Kearra Taylor, 14; Craig Taylor; and Sherrie Taylor. On Sunday morning, the family on Main Avenue and 30th Street was trying to get a ride west out of town.
