no puedo encontrar esta palabra

aguí es la frase del periódico

Ochenta y dos años después de haberse casado en el polvoriendo pueblo de Jalpa, en el estado de Zacatecas, etc.

82 years ago after having been married in the dusty town of Jalpa in the state of Zacatecas, etc

I can only find words about polvorear as being dusty. The only reason I am questioning dusty is because I didn't think that would fit Zacatecas.

Polvoriento is dusty and fit perfectly for Zacatecas. Zacatecas is one of the Mexico's states; the whole state is semi arid. Jalpa is located in the south end of the state.

I found the article online at elsentinel.com but for some reason this is the only one that doesn't work when I click on it. The title is "Casi un siglo de matrimonio" He is 100 & she is 98
I'll try again mañana

I noticed my goof. Probably 82 years ago, in Zacatecas there were no cars aorund
but the horses and the carts being pulled by beast of burden and just the wind did the job, Yes indeed
