    Top o' the Sunday Mawning and coffee to ye

    yes, I guess it's St Patrick's Day weekend. No green beer for me, it's too early and I've gotta drive. Cold and rainy but at least it is not snowing ... yet. I just noticed a temperature drop from an hour ago and they did threaten us with that nasty 's' word in the forecast.

    Our concrete squirrel statue on the back deck is finally poking its ears through the snow. only about 15-20 more inches to melt back there and about a foot more than that in the front. Aye laddie, we shan't be seeing our green grass this fine St Paddy's day this year, naught.

    Finally finished my bass build the other day. Got it strung up the following day and have been playing since. I tell you what, my fingers are sore on both hands. Trying to remember to not over do it thus forcing myself to have to take a long break. Here it is:

    From start:

    after months of procuring parts

    Man, that bass is so beautiful. Lefties would never get that color choice. When I get ready to get a P bass, yours makes an argument for putting together the parts I want.

    Beautiful day to go for a walk with the dogs--or just to hang out and let them play in the yard while I sip a cool bevy and either play guitar or read. Or both!
