My apartment tower had the rotten luck to malfunction on a holiday weekend. This first weekend of Feria de las Flores has a Monday holiday (for the Battle of Boyacá in 1819, a critical victory for Colombian independence in Simon Bolívar's fight for what was then Nueva Granada), so everyone's been off celebrating flower fairs and similar. The emergency mechanics in this city have been too busy to show up.

So... no power yet! Another day in the mall. Hope I can still pull off online meetings! 🤞🏻

@MLClark Welp, nothin' I can do about the power, but I can send you pics of my local wildlife to help make your day a little brighter. 😊

Pic 3) Baby possum I encountered one night, as I was walking home.

Pic 4) Mama plover (shore bird, nowhere near shore here) brooding on her nest, next to a busy railroad track. Look dead center. Can you see her? She had 4 eggs; all hatched successfully.

Hopefully, your day gets better from here. 😃👍

Happy Monday! Hope yours goes swimmingly. Mine's already gotten better for having seen these snaps. :)
