I was trying to post the photos by year so that the pages would run in some kind of date order. However, every time I go through an old album and find photos I decide to post, it means I have to rename all the pages. That takes "mucho tiempo" (much time). So, for now I will name the pages consecutively though the years the photos were taken may not be in any particular order. Date the photos were taken will be indicated whenever possible. |
| The street sign at the intersection of the street where I lived on in Frederiksted through June 1960. 1988 |
| The pillar at the site where the Montpellier Chapel, Our Lady of Perpetual Help, was located. Was part of the staircase. See St. Croix 8 for a picture of chapel. Updated photos at St. Croix 30. Yearly, we walked to the chapel. |
| Baron Spot - For those of you who may not remember what was in the area before the mini mall (Village Mall). We'd stop here for drinks on our way to/from Christiansted. Photo registered by Cruzanique. |
Residence of Mr. and Mrs. Francisco Rivera being built. 1988 |
| Did you know that Fort Christiansvaern was once red? At the left, you can see it when it was red and at right the yellow fort as it now exists. The photo at left was taken in 1982. The photo at right is a postcard, (c) Susanna Vance. The fort in Frederiksted is still red. |
| Jorge's 40th Anniversary Celebration at the Pool (named Vincent F. Mason) in Frederiksted, April 1991, and other views of St. Croix. |
The cake, in the shape of a bottle reads, "This Bottle of Love For You" and in the center "Love 200 Proof" |
| Jorge cutting the cake. Left to right are Daisy, Titi Catalina, Johnny Belardo, Min, unknown individual, Titi Paca, me, Ma, Titi Guilla and Don Carmelo's back. |
| Left to right are Titi Catalina (partially visible), Min, Freddy, Piano (RIP), and Ma. Javier is hidden behind Freddy. |
| Che (cousin, RIP), Rodney and Lillian. |
| Titi Paca (RIP) at the beach birthday party! |
| The shrine that was built after the chapel in Montpelier was destroyed by a storm. |
| Wendy's with a view, Strand Street, Frederiksted. At right are Ma, Javier, Min and Rodney. The restaurant did not last long! |
| A schooner used as a training school by Danish. |
| Picking guavas in the field on the other side of Carambola Golf Course. |
| In a guavaberry tree. Mind you, the trees are thin and are found on the side of hills (cliffs). I think we found this tree as we traveled the Scenic Road. |
I have expanded this photo to give you a better look at the berries. They are small and purple, almost black, in color. They can be found in December and are used in ice-cream, tarts, and jam for the famous Vienna Cake (a special layered cake made during the Christmas holidays). The berries are also used to make the famous Guavaberry, a delicious liqueur. |
