This is my second try at a blog post. I had one all written and the computer refused to save it. !Qué lastima!
Unfortunately, I am running out of creative steam and can’t remember what I wrote, so this may turn out to be as organized as a banana left on a Dominican freeway. I’m going to load some photos and describe them. We’ll see how it goes, since that is nothing like the post that I lost.
