RECUERDOS DE CUBA-MEMORIES OF CUBA
If you're interested in learning more about Cuba before the 1959 revolution and the early years after the revolution, I recommend the following public group. Through photographs, you will be exposed to all aspects of Cuban history and culture including, art, music, architecture, cities, rural areas, and Cubans of all races and from all walks of life. The photographs will show you Cuba was an integrated society before 1959. This group will inform as well as enhance your knowledge of Cuba.
PLEASE remember to be courteous and respectful. LEAVE politics at the door, and ask the administrator if you can join the group to learn more about Cuba.
Oh yes, she was The Pearl of the Caribbean and a happy place!

A Runaway Ride
I posted this back in 2016.
A Runaway Ride
Sometimes when my grandfather went into town, he would take my mother with him on the horse. During one of those trips, he did not tie the horse’s reins when he dismounted. When he turned around to get my mother down, it was too late. The horse took off in a flash with my mother hanging onto the horse’s neck for dear life.
As the horse raced at full speed, things began to fall out of the saddle pack. Playing cards flew behind the horse. At times my mom’s body was completely off the horse, flying in the air, attached to the horse only by her arms tight around its neck. My grandfather kept running after them, asking people along the way if they had seen a horse with a little girl hanging on, after the horse had run out of his sight. He was sure that at any moment he would find my mother dead on the roadside, but finally the horse decided that he had had enough. He stopped and calmly began grazing with my mom still clinging on for dear life until Papasito caught up, which he finally did. She did not have a scratch on her.
