Sounds from the Southern Office

The view from the balcony of my "office" this morning.

Marimba music. (The neighbors have had a pleasant-sounding party going for 24+ hours -- somebody's saint day?)

Dogs barking.

Our neighbor Lupita singing to her baby Sebastian.

Gas trucks dragging jangling chains.

A rooster's strangled-sounding grito of virility.

Loudspeakers on the tops of cars, hawking oranges. (¡Naranja-naranja-naranja-naranja!)

Someone using a saw.

Birdsong! The rain has stopped for now....

  1. Thanks for the reminders of your neighborhood sounds and the glimpse of the ever glorious bougainvillea. The dominant feature of the Northern Office right now is heat ... predictions of 102 for tomorrow!
