Meet Tanty Mildred from Barbados

Hi Fam,

I have to start off by saying WOW. This trip to the island of Barbados was an educational marvel when it came to my endeavor learning about my family history. Pam arranged to stay in a nice hotel, which came with our own stove and frig. So, though away from home, we cooked every night and had some wonderful dinners. Meeting tanty Mildred was great. She remembered me as a little boy when she came to the US back in the late 70's and had some pictures to prove it. Those pictures and historical notices will be posted on the website at a later date. But, until that time, enjoy some pictures from down there.
This was Pam and Tanty on the front porch. Before that, we were served some Cucu and sol fish, hmmm. Sorry you weren't there.


This was the background of our hotel where we stayed. Pam and myself took a stroll as the sun was setting. BTW, every day, I was in that sea behind her. Sorry you weren't there again. LOL.

Of course, I got the worst of it with some blind bum on the beach taking a picture of us 3 feet away, but must have zoomed out like we were 10 mile out to sea. The speck to the right is me. This one you could have been there in my place.





















Also wanted to say, while away it was Prince's Birhtday. Happy Birthday big man.
