Somedays I feel like a squirrel chasing its tail. And today was one of those days … trying to catch up on things I needed to do for Encore, for Indivisible, and for the Board of Library Trustees. I call this a catch up day, and it ended with a Library Board meeting.
The news today from Heather and Jed. They have a solar panel that has stopped working and when someone came to check on it yesterday, they reported that a racoon was living under the panel and had chewed through the wires. I found out today that when the animal control came, they said it was actually a squirrel’s nest that the racoon was using. But the racoon was nowhere to be found. The solar company will repair the damage and put an animal guard around the panels. Hopefully, there is not too much damage to the roof.
The news today from Justin and Jo. They have a new album that came out yesterday. I watched the video today promoting the album and loved it. They are playing music outside amongst the jungle of vegetation and animals on their little farm, Finca Maravilla. You get to meet Hopi, their horse, Clarence, their female goat, their pet pig named Rabbit, and a few chickens, while listening to Justin and Jo making music. The video really shows the beauty of living in Puerto Rico. The name of the album is The Gathering. You can listen to on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVZ8puHgwW4. But I don’t know how to post the video on this blog. I did post it on my Facebook page, so you can see it there.
