Visit to Ejido El Remolino, June 8, 2009 by Anita and Richard Gonzalez
Anita and Richard were in El Remolino where our
families lived along the river. The people of El Remolino nearby received us
very well and made some more friends. We visited this area 4 times as well as
other surrounding towns where our families lived. The weather was very warm but
the water was very pleasant and clear. It was such a indescribable feeling to be
on the same ground where our families lived and we could only imagine how our
ancestors must have felt to be forced from this beautiful place. There were
still signs of where they lived and we left with prayers that many of our
families who can not visit these areas will see where they come from and
remember.
