FOR YOUR LISTENING PLEASURE...
A Friday night favorite at the local jam session...Ashokan Farewell...as played on the guitar:
Written by Jay Unger in 1982, Ashokan Farewell is a favorite among fiddle players and those of us who love the haunting sounds of Jay's fiddle as it plays of the lament expressed by the songwriter

BIRDS, SNOW & ICE
Another snowfall on top of the last, up to 8 to 10 inches, depending on who you ask! It was a beautiful snow and only the most stubborn of mountains of snow created by snowplows still remain. Hope you enjoy another walk in the Applachains...

A REMINDER ON A WINTER DAY...WALK WITH ME...
through the stunning gardens in North Washington in July. The traffic you see are folks waiting to return to Canada with U.S. citizens waiting on the other side to return to the States. I took the liberty of borrowing a tune from Neil Diamond. Thanks Gary for introducing me to "Leave a Little Room for God" and thanks to Marci for all the great photos. Hope you enjoy your tour with me...no photos have been enhanced in any way...

A HAPPY AND BOUNTIFUL 2010 TO ALL...
WITH ONE VOICE
In the adorations and benedictions of the righteous
The praises of all the prophets are kneaded together.
All their praises are mingled into one stream,
All the vessels are emptied into one ewer,
Because He that is praised is, in fact only One
In this respect all religions are only one religion,
Because all praises are directed toward God's light
.

ANOTHER HISTORICAL DISCOVERY...
Mrs. Della Cate Brandon
Mother of Fred(see previous post) and his twin Ed
I was going thru some songbooks when I came across the songbook my Grandmother used when she would sing in church AND the local radio station's "The Joe Gunter Hour"...She could be seen on Sunday morning walking to town to sing on the radio. Her favorite song to sing was "Where is My Wandering Boy Tonight?"
Not mentioned in the article was her love of sports. She could be found at the local ball fields day and/or night enjoying the softball games and visiting with friends and neighbors. She became a "regular".
This picture was taken around 1963, she lived to be 89 years old.

A NEW BIRD!!!!....
THE AMERICAN BITTERN
I don't live in South Dakota, but you must see the pace at which this bird moves, she recently spent a few days on our creek, as she was migrating southward, looking for a winter retreat!

Look closely to see the American Bittern! Well-camouflaged, getting its picture proved to be quite a challenge, so I have posted just below this picture a web photo of the American Bittern.
