Pretty town. Surrounding areas are gorgeous.

We're about 45 minutes southeast in Taylor, SC. It was a beautiful drive as the leaves are turning now and a crisp morning broke into a warm afternoon. We stopped by Lexington Glassworks, Blue Spiral 1, then Wicked Weed for a lunch. After three hours in an hour parking spot there were no chalk marks on the tire. (I did check each hour to see if the tires had been marked.) We hopped over to Wedge to check out another gallery above the brewery, then sat out and enjoyed a heavy ABV Belgian. A perfect day.

This is my little amp combo for my synth so I'll always be ready for any informal/impromptu jam session that may present itself.

I've tried a few actual guitar, bass and keyboard amps, but they all had their own flavor, and I couldn't bond with any of them. This little improvised combo sounds clean and transparent, and the subwoofer adds low end that the PA amp lacks. And it's a tight low end, not boomy or distorted.

I bought the Kustom new on sale for about $80, and I bought the Yamaha used for about $40-$45 IIRC (eBay local pickup, so no shipping charge). The Kustom is 18" high, and the Yamaha is 13" high.

SAILOR TAKE WARNING!!!!

;-)

My father-in-law used to say that all the time. That was the reason he originally purchased that property in 1970 was because he wanted to sail Lake Superior.

As for last Sat, the only warning for sailors would have been "stay at the dock, no wind today." It was calm like that all day, but chilly at 45 degrees air temp and water, maybe 2 degrees above freezing. I was in my kayak for awhile but you could feel the cold through the bottom of the kayak.
