I have one of the 5 string early models.Rawlee.(growed up there)
Now, for some banjo geek-speak. Those are first-generation Deering Goodtime banjos. I would know them anywhere. I bet the artist(s) procured these when Deering scrapped the paddle headstock and switched to the more fiddle-shaped one in current use. Here is an old one on Reverb. https://reverb.com/item/49012554-deering-good-time-banjo
And here is a link to the new one. https://www.deeringbanjos.com/collections/goodtime-banjos/products/goodtime-banjo
Suprised to find it worth so much!
I know prices have been going up, but…

After seeing twofers pictures yesterday, curiosity got the better of me... I ran it past a buddy of mine who is editor of Bluegrass Today dot com... I figured he would know the story. Sure enough, he had done a story when they first wrought the art together. It used to be outside the Convention Center.

Daughter is growing pink oyster mushrooms. They are growing amazingly fast. Almost ready to sauté!

They really are. And they're supposed to be delicious... Will know soon.
I've always thought of mushrooms as "kinda vegetables" even though I knew that fungi were not veggies... But really they are a completely separate kingdom, as far removed from "plants" (and animals) as plants are from animals.
And the current research about the micorrhizal network (the fungal network through which trees and other plants communicate) is pretty wild.

They're supposedly very good for your gut and brain as well. There are cells in the stomach that many researchers can only find concensus in calling "brain cells". Apparently our guts and brains are way more connected than we originally thought.

as reflected in the colloquial phrase "I just know it in my gut"...

...and "It's a gut reaction."
Here in Eastern NC we get snow accumulation (literally) about every 3 or 4 years. So when it happens we make the best of it....even if our snowman is pretty sad.
Today was sunny and an unnaturally warm 75 degrees F on the Southern Oregon Coast.
A very nice break from the usual 55 degrees,fog,rain,clouds.

First time FAR up in the UP of Michigan this weekend for a wedding. Went through Houghton on the way up and saw this cool lift bridge. I was drving and had my wife try to get a photo on Friday in the dark when it was all lit up but that was a nasty blur of nothing.
I marvel at how much snow they have there though, they can keep it. We were there from Friday night through Sunday afternoon and it never stopped snowing.
In the hardy northener fashion this horse drawn wagon brought the wedding party to the church too.
