I saw the toucan today! I was out in the road talking to Henning and it flew right over my head and landed on a bare branch nearby. It let me stand and look at it for several minutes before flying down the road. I called Mimi and she was able to get a picture of it. It's so exciting that they are returning and that they survived the storm. (you can click the pictures to see them full size)

Painting began today, but it is Mimi and I that are doing it so far. One of the workers here asked for a loan from the management yesterday because his wife needed to go to a dentist. He got the loan but must have gotten lost on the way home to take the wife to the dentist, he showed up drunk for work this morning and was sent home. So, they were down a worker and didn't have one to send us as a painter. Maybe tomorrow.
