Home Again!!
Album #4
The main reason for the recent trip to Panama was to participate in paying homage
to the builders of the Panama Canal as part of the Roosevelt Medal Descendant's Society
headed by Mr. Marc Quinn. On Friday August 13th at 9:00 a.m., two Panama Canal
Commission launches left from the pier by Pedro Miguel Locks for a trip through Gaillard
Cut where we each thew a rose in remembrance of the great Army of Canal
Builders. Over 80 persons participated. Conquering the Continental Divide is a
neverending job -- the Commission is in the process of widening Gaillard Cut once again.
These photos show some of the work being done. It is impossible to go thru the
Cut and not be awed by what was accomplished there.
