Finally a chance to write about cricket at Lauderhill after two abandonments in successive days (Friday and yesterday). Also a huge photo gallery.
We Finally Have A Game On At Lauderhill!

A look at the action so far from Lauderhill, Florida, where after two abandonments in as many days we finally have a game running according to schedule. Also a huge photo gallery.

Sad that the #India vs #Canada match was #abandoned without a ball being bowled due to a #wetoutfield.
A huge #disappointment for the many #spectators who attended with great excitement to watch the game.
They would have loved to watch the cricketers in action in their home city.

Driving to the #MovieTheatre this afternoon, I saw a line of banners hung on poles advertising a #T20WorldCup #Cricket #tournament happening in #Lauderhill, #Florida (where I lived during high school).

The #demographic change there is astounding.

We were the second Black family in the city in 1973, now it's almost all Black, and heavily #Caribbean.

#US-born father, #CostaRica-born mother. Born in mixed-race neighborhood in #WashingtonDC. Moved to then all-#white #ChulaVista, #California. Moved to all-#Black #Gladeview/#Brownsville, #Miami, #Florida. Moved to almost all-#PuertoRican #ValleArribaHeights, #SanJuan, #PuertoRico. Moved to then almost all-white #Lauderhill, Florida. Joined the U.S. #Navy.

At 65, I've literally never known a sense of belonging anywhere, with anyone.

"They describe TCKs as having been exposed to many #cultures, yet not having developed a full sense of belonging in any of the cultures they have experienced...The literature describes TCKs as facing unique difficulties in the development of individual identity. These struggles may include difficulties in experiencing a sense of belonging, #enculturation, #identity, grief and loss, and faith." "Hi, it's me. I'm [a #TCK] it's me."

I first lived here, in #Miami, starting in 1965, just before #Hurricane #Betsy hit (second grade).

In 1970, we moved to #PuertoRico and in 1973 returned to live in #Lauderhill.

I joined the #USNavy in 1976, and returned in 1980 to live in various cities across Broward County, with a break to attend #FloridaStateUniversity in #Tallahassee.

In 1993, I moved back to #WashingtonDC, and returned to Florida (#Sunrise) in 2017.

I've lived half my life in Florida. It's always been weird as fuck.
