Pedro Castillo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

José Pedro Castillo Terrones (Spanish pronunciation: [xoˈse ˈpeđɾo kasˈtiʝo teˈrones] (About this soundlisten); born 19 October 1969) is a Peruvian schoolteacher, union leader and politician serving as the 63rd president of Peru since 28 July 2021, following the 2021 general election.[1][2]

He attained prominence as a leading figure in the 2017 teacher strike and ran in the election as the candidate of the left-wing Free Peru party. He placed first in the initial round of the presidential vote and advanced to the second round against Keiko Fujimori.[3][4] On 16 June, the final count of the second round by the National Office of Electoral Processes indicated that Castillo had won 50.13% of valid votes, although the National Jury of Elections delayed its official declaration of the outcome due to unsubstantiated allegations of fraud raised by Fujimori.[5][6] Castillo's victory was confirmed on 19 July, and he was inaugurated on 28 July.[7]

2021 photos: This year was filled with hope. Yes, the COVID-19 pandemic is still with us but it was hoped that restoring sanity to the White House. the rapid vaccine role-out, and a government that finally cared would put things back to normal again. But the force was strong in the evil anti-vaxxer movement and the virus variants made quick use of that so we're still dealing with this crap. Plus the continued impact of the Trump putsch attempt... Sigh. Trips this year: after getting fully vaccinated, I made a trip down to Asheville, NC in May to visit my dad and his wife Dixie and returned again in early October, in mid-July, I made a quick trip up to Stockbridge, MA to see the Norman Rockwell Museum again as well as Daniel Chester French's place @ Chesterwood. Number of photos taken this year: about 283,000, slightly up from 2020 but still really low.
