"Poinciana" - In the home music studio today playing the classic song from 1936. Two of my favorite versions are from great pianists Ahmad Jamal and Keith Jarrett.

I met them in Patagonia and watched her school percussion ensemble play a beautiful concert. One of the best of the week! The group is led by Evaristo Aguilar an amazing teacher, percussionist. Their music is so heartfelt!

It's a drug cartel town. We went out to dinner and the first 2 restauraunts we went to were closed. I mean the owners ran away because they were approached by the cartel. Another we drove by had bullet holes all through the front of the building.
