My sympathy for your loss as well. They make our lives rich, but they leave mighty holes when they go.

Actually, they look dead.
Should have a lower price since they left off the frets.
I was mostly petless from the time I left home at 20 to join Uncle Sam's Misguided Children, until about 30 to 31 when the wife and I were adopted on an evening walk by a lost ragdoll siamaese mix who became Lily, and taught my wife the wonder of cats.
Been one, up to three, sharing our homes ever since. Until yesterday.
Clover was adopted at ~6months just about Christmas a few weeks after we lost Tachyon (at 17) but at the time we still had our big orange floof Hemingway, and he was around for the first several years of Clover's apprenticeship. She's been the solo cat since he had to leave us in late 2020.
Still feeling out the shape of the future.
The missus (who is less sentimental than I, or in different ways) this time is saying "probably, but not right away."
I'm of jumbled feels about it just now. mid-60's I'm less certain about taking another on & being able to honor the compact.
I think we had a band FB(?). Instagram? nope.
I prolly mentioned b4 that the first time I saw snow, it was on 'my' shovel at boot camp, Great Lakes NTC, just north of Chicago, 12/1/64.
Willy got ahold of it.
My editor at the Technique thought my positive review of Nothin’ Fancy was crazy. But he ran it. I got to keep the album, of course!
Well…..Question: Was there any really fishing that occurred, or were you all just "fishing"?
So many choices, what should I do?

That is a period car color. I have been thinking that the replacement for my van when it rusts out will be an old pickup with a topper. I saw a pretty good one that color. It is completely an era color.
All good. I prefer fish (or anything I eat for that matter) that way.Actually, they look dead.

Sorry for your loss Glen. It's never easy.
Haven't seen any here this winter.
None of us are motivated to post on ours as we should.
An invaluable asset to a band would be having someone that loves to post up excessively on social media. Nobody in either of my bands is very interested in doing that. I’d guess it’s a generational thing.
I personally don’t like posting stuff that is wide open to everyone on FB, IG, etc. because, to me, it feels awkward. I’m private and really have none of the “Look at me!!” gene.
Posting in groups, like here, to people I feel comfortable with is about the best I can do.

For us, it's very valuable not just for show promotion, but in meeting other bands and venues to go play at/with. I don't post that often but our singer does, the music scene around here is very active and this gets us "out there" at minimal cost. We did do a little monetary push on the most recent show and it helped a lot.
