A typical day



Yesterday evening after a typical day (which included not so typically mangling my left index finger with a box cutter, but that's another story), I was walking down my street and saw a typical sight.

This little burro is carrying drinks for the party of people walking behind the band as they travel from one locale to the next. The band plays continuously the length of the route (try doing that with an acoustic base).

Some might think it's a bit strange to see a burro in hat followed by a band dressed in colonial costumes. In fact it would be strange not to hear music or the clatter of hooves in the streets, or the sound of fireworks in the middle of the night.

Just another typical day. How lucky am I?
