The guys were locals from Cuba - I actually knew some from working on the 550: the owner of the feed store, and the guy on the left in the picture above with the red hat owns the Subway... They were getting the trees for the Catholic Church, school, etc. there in town. They'd been praying someone would come by for a couple of hours...
Wow, I think that you guys definitely earned some Cruiser karma for helping those guys out!
