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.
