Spring in Michigan
Ok, I'm calling it. Yesterday was the last day we will have any snow for the season dang it.
But old man winter does not give up so easily in Michigan. However, as past records go, we
should not see any more snow until next season.
All the harbingers of spring are here...
100th Post - Gone Country
For my 100th post, I thought I'd share some of the nicer
pics I've taken around our country home. The pond attracts
lots of wildlife. We were big city folks until we both retired
a few years ago.
We moved from the city to a wonderful country
home with a very nice pond...
Please help me date my SG. Flowers and chocolates are no help.
Look what I found under my grandmothers bed. lol
Not really.
I was hoping for some expertise in dating this good wood.
I've been trying to date a custom SG that I believe to be dated to '68 or '69. I know the walnut

Here's my first.
I started my musical journey one week after I saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan
show. That was 1964 and I was 10 years old. When I asked my parents if I could
take music lessons, my dad was elated as he had tried to teach me clarinet when
I was 5. I was not interested at that...
Most of my guitars are of the 6 string variety, but I do have 2 basses.
I bought these two Fender basses a couple weeks apart back in '08 for
a project I was working on at the time.
The first was a '93 Fender Urge made in the USA. Stu Hamm's signature model.
Later in the same year...
We have 3 Corgis and our oldest, Forrest, turned 18 today.
I know his days are numbered, but he is still doing very
well for a dog of his age. I'll miss him when he's gone.

The Eagle Has Landed
I had a recent post titled "You're In My Spot", where I shared a bunch of wildlife pics of the pond. I had a bunch of likes, views and comments, so I thought I'd share these pics of an Eagle that was visiting our pond quite a bit last year.
Many of his visits occurred...
You're In My Spot
I was taking some pics of a green heron at our pond last summer, and got
some other shots as well. In tribute to Sheldon Cooper's "You're in my spot."

The Fishing Thread
I know I'm not the only musician here who enjoys angling. Lets see what
you've caught. Post your tips, tricks, and pics here. Maybe we can learn
from each other on tricks and tips. For me, the finesse presentation has
been key for fooling them. Light line, small hooks and...
