I just couldn't let you get away with your great pictures without a little competition.
All in fun.

Actually to be honest, in my Ostercization I completed this. Funny what you get done during trying times.

I build stuff because projects are fun and challenging to fill my free time. A distraction like your bass never hurts. But at this point in my life, there are other proirities and I'd be hard pressed to buy anything new. I figure that I have enough stuff taking up space.

The bass went out the door and the check went into my pocket yesterday an I felt it was a fair trade as well as not loosing space. I wish they would let me see it in action though.

This past winter I've been eating horse feed, porridge, with a little brown sugar for breakfast. Never eaten so much oats in my life. I've also taken to eating brown bread. I'm surprised that I actually like it. The bakery makes a nice one that doesn't taste like cardboard. Being indoors more, there is less need to eat.

I know what's getting into me. Not really sure why my tastes have changed. Maybe you go into semi-hibrination mode like some animals.

There were lots of birds singing in the forest today. The dogs at the dogpark were rambunctious. A lot of running and barking. The dog people didn't seem to be social distancing, they seem to be a social lot like the dogs. Yacking while the dogs are playing. There were huge flocks of geese passing overhead. They were honking a lot, very social as well. There's a lake in the park, some stop there. In the country I see them by the thousands in the corn fields. Formations seem to redezvous there.

;) I wasn't .

It was Sunday nights. So long as you stayed for the whole show at the Fillmore when you left you were handed a poster and a handbill for the next show and you got you ticket back. So we wnt to as many Sunday shows as we could. I did see a episode of Antiques Road Show where a gentleman who did the same thing brought in his complete Bill Graham Collection and I believe they valued it at $258,000. I was 7 posters shy of a complete collection but had a house fire New Years Morning 1990 and POOF all gone. I really did not need to see that ARS episode.

I meant to add two things.
1. By the end of the concert when you were handed your "Goodies" you were probably pretty "Ripped" by then.
2. The pictures I posted to try and goad the "Contessa" were from my replacement collection and they are actual Jim Marshall, Joe Sia, and Annie Levowitz(sp?) Prints. Unfortunately the "Contessa" didn't bite. It was just in fun.

Edit: No that is not a real Flying Eyeball. Not at $15,500.
 
My best eating habits follow the seasons, I find. It's very close to asparagus season. There's an asparagus risotto I make that'll nail your bum to the floor. :drool:
Yes asparagus!
I make a dish that is delicious.

chicken thighs with cream of mushroom in a crockpot.
lay fresh asparagus on top .
Slow cook.

i made it up one day. I have to make it often per the wife's request.
