I have been blogging a long time and realized that many of you may not have read these posts that I wrote back in 2005. I should remember to print these posts out for my grandchildren if all of these blogs go down in years.
Hatties blog is one I read regularly as she lives in Hawaii were I went to school for a short time. Her recent trip to Cuba reminded me of this post I wrote so loooong ago and this epilogue that I added later.
Come back here, please, if you want to leave a comment as those posts are so long ago in another time zone!
I will be checking them
ReplyDeleteand thank you for your kind comments to this one - all the time :)
What a fabulous story! The revolutionaries of today would have treated Americans much differently.
ReplyDeleteThat is an outstanding life experience. Thanks for sharing it again.
ReplyDeleteWoah.
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking. The story of your in-laws in Cuba was amazing. I'm glad you wrote it all down and that you have that letter as a firsthand account. Wow. Quite a story!
An amazing story! The family was right on the cusp of it all.
ReplyDeleteA great story, and so nice that you reposted these for those of us who were not on the blogs "back then".

ReplyDeleteFirst of all let me congratulate you on your staying power. Still blogging after all this time. . . . .
ReplyDeleteA very interesting story, definitely worth keeping, even enlarging as a short story, with people and their reactions, their fears and excitement brought in.
Quite a tale, in fact.
