Robins like paltas

In previous years, we thought it was a comedreja (possum) eating our avocados. Nope – this year it’s birds. As you can see they’re doing a fine job. I must say, though, unlike some other birds, they are very thorough. Nothing goes to waste.

So I guess if the birds are happy, I am as well.

Footprints

Sky, flowers

Old notes, I assume

At the intendencia (city hall) as I wait to pay 8 years of back taxes for our chacra that I thought our business administrator was paying. Post-it notes, taped to the cubicle divider with packing tape.

Strange in a couple ways

Strange sky. And a couch abandoned a couple days ago, in plain sight, 50 meters from the road. Because of course.

Milky clouds

Voting

Voting in Uruguay: you take your credenciál into a school classroom where there are three election workers at a desk and a soldier with an automatic weapon looking at his cell phone. You put your card down in little taped rectangle (thank you COVEEEEED), pull down the obligatory face mask for ID, take an envelope and let them write down the number, go behind a screened-off area where you find tables full of ballots, find the one you want and seal it in the envelope, go back out, tear off the identifying part of the envelope and hand in, then get your proof of voting (which is obligatory for citizens).
