Esta es la farmacia de Río Seco no en los Ángeles como dice la foto. Está situada entre la iglesia adventista de Río Seco y la fabrica de Cítricos de Río seco.
This little house is called: La Ermita de la Caridad. It was built my grandfather Jose Merino. Now it is taken care by my cousin Jose Andres, grandson of the my grandfather. I used to live at 100 meters from this Ermita.

Thank you for the beautiful picture of a typical Cuban "Bohio", along with the "gallinero" and the "excusado", and the ever present "jardin de flores". Notice the purple croton and the Cuban "mariposa". Construction is mostly from the Cuban Royal Palm, the walls made from the bark, tied from the inside, not nailed, and the thatch "guano" roof from the palm fronds, and the floor of tamped soil, not unlike native Cubans may have done even before Columbus, with the exception of the electric light bulb. Imagine this area of Cuba suffering hurricane Ike with 120 mph winds and 160 mph gusts, strong enough to topple even the palm trees. How did these folks fare the storm? How many more like them?
Thank you for posting this typical rural school. My mother Digna de Paz taught here (grades 1 thru 5 in the single classroom) from 1946-1956, going horseback from RioSeco for the first 3 years until she married my father in 1949, afterwhich she would be driven there by jeep from Banes, where we lived. During periods of heavy rain the jeep could not cross the overflowing creeks and she would have to walk in the muddy roads a good distance, and other times she would stay over-night with a local family, returning home when the levels subsided. The original schoolhouse was on stilts (about 6 or 8 steps up) with "guano" roof and wood floor. One time lightning struck the flag pole and melted most of it. In her last year there, she saw to it that the bust of Jose Marti be placed on the concrete base. In the back is the out-house ("el excusa'o"). She was transferred to a new rural school in Veguitas and remained there until 1960.

I love this beach. It brings me good memories of my childhood. I used to live 2 km away from it.
