50 Years Later

WASHINGTON – (April 13) President Barack Obama directed his administration Monday to allow unlimited travel and money transfers by Cuban Americans to family in Cuba, and to take other steps to ease U.S. restrictions on the island, a senior administration official told The Associated Press.

It took almost 50 years and a president with some gumption to bring us back to our senses on Cuba. Hopefully this is just the beginning, and all of us will soon have the opportunity to travel to this beautiful country and start reconnecting with its good people.
