Someone please help! I know this is a very odd request but I was looking for some help from a local in Sao Miguel to send me very specific rocks to the US for Christmas.
This past August my wife and I went to Sao Miguel to find where her grandmother was from. We knew very little since she died almost a decade ago. Her grandmother was also my wife's best friend. While in Achadinha we found the very spot where her childhood home was located next to Cafe Taveras. (The Di Medeiros and Raposo Family) The home is not there anymore but the rubble still is. We took a few pieces of the volcanic rock the home was made of to take home. On our way they were taken from our bags going through security. They said it wasn't allowed to carry on but we could have checked it. They threw them out in front of my wife in a scene I can only describe as devastating and heart wrenching. My wife cried for 2 days after that as we traveled all the way from Boston to stand there and reconnect with her grandmother.
I will pay someone and pay for all shipping for someone to go to Cafe Taveras, go to the lot to the right of their storage building and take a couple rocks and mail them to me so I can surprise my wife.
Please please please...
