I have a bunch of catch-up to do, and then I'll be taking a mental break for a couple of days and then I'll have more catch-up to do!
First off, a very important Puerto Rican artist, Rafael Tufiño, has died. Sad. Can anyone rise up to replace him?
As for blog posts, I wanted to share two from a friend, with photos of the interior of the island as well as some lechón, some photos of Culebra, and an invitation to el Día Internacional de la Salsa in a couple of weeks, which will have some of the biggest names in salsa performing.

Anyways... stay safe and enjoy!

Hola!
No sé si poder ver vosotros comentario anterior?
Now that Mr. Barone --of U.S. News & World Report-- has discussed whether Puerto Rico's "all-or-nothing" 63 Delegate Primary might be incredibly decisive in determining the outcome of the primary, will you comment on this related issue that may well impact the result of the PR Primary?
