Lima to Maracaibo Memoir from a Saskatchewan Banker
A Saskatchewan bank executive recounts a life journey from drought stricken Elrose to Maracaibo Venezuela, detailing work in Lima Peru during the 1950s and 1960s. He notes local hardships, social life, clubs, a bank strike, and an extended reminiscence of Elrose friends and Saskatchewan ties. He contrasts irrigation and desert Lima with winter travel, family routines, and cultural landmarks.
