Mercifully, it rained last night.  Apparently, from the time I left for NYC until my return, it hadn't rained a drop.  I came home to a semi parched yard, a fallen plantain tree (it happens when it doesn't receive enough moisture), etc.

Christmas not a big deal here in a household of one.  Bought some lamb and made attu erachi kari.  Might get a ph. call from Colombia.

Wish all of you the best.  Enjoy the break, and...

May your life be as clear as water drawn
quite early in the morning

hey maracatu, we have heavy rain here in italy today too. proper, water-table-filling midwinter weather!

sorry about your plantain, good that a new baby tree will grow, if the root is still good.

i'd especially like to thank you for the caribbean coverage this last year, we are really fortunate to have your journalistic talents reporting from that part of the world.

clear water, yes that is really what it's all about...

Thank you and thanks to all.  It doesn't feel like a one person household, anymore.  I will continue with the "reporting" from my region.
