It was very interesting to see Fox Point in 2022. It would have been even more interesting to see it then. Fortunately a Cape Verdean American film maker has done several films featuring the community. See in particular "Some Kind Of Funny Porto Rican?:" A Cape Verdean American Story 82 min on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoruIkp4z6M and also a new one that I haven't watched yet on Fox Point and Cape Verdeans in Mozambique https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULoF-7_hSgY
Returning to "Home" always brings back so many memories and tears for the loved ones who are no longer there. It's gets harder as the years pass but I do miss that drive down Main Street in Ada.

Well, let's improve your french...
Merci Catherine Ann ( j'adorais t'appeler comme ça ... ;-) ) pour ce joli et émouvant retour vers le passé.
Tu as toujours été pour moi : la fille qui habitait Providence RI.
Tes racines dans cette ville étaient robustes mais tu souhaitais découvrir le monde alors cette ville devenait trop petite...
Bons baisers de la vieille Europe !
Olivier

Lovely word pictures that evoked my own memories.
