The Panamanian poet Ricardo Miro, in his poem “Patria” suggests that Panama was made so small, so that it could be carried in the heart. We all carry Panama in our heart until the end of time.
Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "This is the way; walk in it" (Isaiah 30:21) |

My goal is to bring a little happiness
to my fellow Zonians through images from home in the Canal Zone. If I can get
someone to smile, utter a wow or a sigh; then doing this web site was worth every minute
and dollar spent creating and maintaining them. My Bio and
Introduction In Perpetuity All who are Zonians carry a solemn responsibility. As our parents before, and we ourselves, have lived, benefited and accepted the administrations of the government of the Panama Canal Zone, we became "de facto" citizens of that government we have become "Zonians". That government is no longer viable, and the Canal Zone no longer exits. Yet our earned birthright as Zonians, we carry forever. We carry the responsibility to perpetuate this birthright so all men will know of the achievements of the "Ditchdiggers" and the successes of the government and its society. We Zonians, and other like us, carry the responsibility to be the Guardians of this piece of history. Ernest E. Pierce - A Zonian Navigation of this site. I have
divided this site up into different categories and periods in the history of Panama and
the Canal Zone.
