It's been exactly 100 years since my bisabuela Tomasa Garcia Alonso emigrated to the U.S. for the first time on September 14, 1907.

That is pretty freaking cool. What guts those people had. Very Happy

Yeah, maybe that's part of what draws us to their story, that willingness to risk all. Does that make us timid voyeurs?

Happy 100th!

Sí, quizás eso sea parte de lo que nos atrae a su historia, esa voluntad de arriesgarse. ¿Así que quizás seamos como voyeurs tímidos?

¡Felicidades por el centésimo!
