Did you have a lovely birthday Sis?

 

[Galene]

Did you have a lovely birthday Sis?

Yes. Nothing big, just our friends from across the street and another couple.
We ordered in, we cut a cake, we had some bubbly. Lots of laughs and good cheer

there you go, changing the subject!

 

[DiJiT]

there you go, changing the subject!

She is a master at diverting attention. Ask her about the weather and she'll give you a recipe for Greek Pastry, ask her how she is and she'll do a magic trick, ask her to show some pics and.....well that she is willing to do.

Good Morning My Friend

Just saw the latest addition to your extended family.

OMG JUST ADORABLE

Good Morning Little Bit...

Isn't he, though?? I will post a pic for those who are wondering...

He his J's new project and love interest - the plan is to train him up as one of those agility competition dogs. You know, the ones that run around hopping over fences and up and down teeter-totters (see-saw; sp ) and through tunnels and such. It should be a hoot to see - the silly dogs (Corgies) don't have hardly no legs...

Damn, my finger tips are such meat on my left hand that typing is tender this morning. I have been really been putting the hours on the bluegrass pickin'. At least it is starting to show some improvement.

We are all a muggy/sticky here this morning, again. Gettin' tired of this weather.

The weather man called the week-end weather "juicy"...Already it is hotter here then it ever is in NY in mid August.

I know what you mean... That little pup that sings the "Ain't got no bugs on me..." commercial hits me the same way.

Oh, you are in for a treat later on this summer Little Bit...

Now I understand why people from the South spend summers in the north!!!

So what's you been working on?

 

[TheBloozeMan]

What I've been working on...

I came away from the various jam sessions at the Peaceful Bend Festival with a pretty good punch list as far as my playing goes. A good piece of it is repretorie... I just don't know the songs well enough to play the melodies. And there are a number of tec-knuckle issues as well. I have fly-away fingers, especially where my ring and little fingers are concerned. I tend to lift them too far from the fingerboard, and they also tend to move together, so, besides learning new songs, I have been doing a number of drills, mostly scales, and concentrating on keeping my fingers as quiet as possible - no excess flailing.

My fiddle song list...
- Old Joe Clark
- Forked Deer
- St. Anne's Reel
- Turkey in the Straw
- Arkansas Traveler
- Blackberry Blossum

...has grown to include...
- Red Haired Boy
- Angeline the Baker
- Bill Cheatum

...and I am working on adding:
- Magic Foot
- Bonepart's Retreat
- Eighth of January
- Soldier's Joy

Additionally, I try to run through as many of my singing songs as I can in a session.

It looks somewhat organized, but no where near what I'd like. Many times I find myself just picking somewhat aimlessly through a chord progression and thinking about Annie...

Sorry to interrupt, but the North can be just as muggy as the South. Take it from a Yankee that has visited down there.
Just dont have the threats of the twisters that you folks down there do.

 

[Beam_of_lite]

Kind of amazing isn't it how us procrastinaters can make great list

There is a time to do music lessons and a time to pick an grin an daydream...sometimes they blend together

True to a point.I used to live along Lake Erie,the muggy days were few and far between

I live closer to the Atlantic. We get the hot and humid weather most of the summer. From June through mid-September, it can get very ugly up here.

Oooooo.... LOL.... what a cutie Arty is!

Hiya Macx, Sis and everybody

Living along the lake was a two sided sword.In the winter it brought "Lake Effect snow" but the summer brought cool breezes

LOL. Every year the news casts show pictures of Buffalo, usually buried under 5 feet of snow, and talking about the lake effect snow. I love the snow, but I think even I would get sick of shovelling every 4 hours just to keep up with it.

This was the last "bad snow" we got that year.Almost 4 feet in less than 24 hours...yeah...NOT FUN

Like I said, I love snow, but that may be too much even for me. My back is starting to hurt just thinking of all the shovelling I would need to do.

But when it would be done, I would be the first one out there with the kids having a ball in it. After growing up out west, you have a better appreciation for those types of things.
