If you're too stressed out to play whistles right now after your trip, I'd be glad to take care of your Elfsongs for you till you feel better! :twisted: :D :lol: :D

So who was in the emergency room? You or someone else? I hope you or whomever it was is doing okay now! What happened to the music store in Spokane?

Sounds like an eventful trip.
:lol: Nothing doing, m'dear! The whistles are all that's keeping me sane!

It was me in the emergency room, and it was because the minor flu I thought I was over decided to turn into acute bronchitis (as I told the doctor "there's (hack!) nothing (gasp!) cute (wheeze!) about it!"). I remember seeing all kinds of signs saying "congestion ahead" as we drove up U.S. 101, but I'd rather thought they had something else in mind!

The music store closed. It was just a little instrument store at Northtown Mall (mostly band stuff), but they'd always had a nice selection of folk instruments...including whistles and whistle music. That's where I got my old Feadog. The restaurant was even worse though...it's turned from one of the best vegetarian restaurants I've ever eaten at (second only to Millenium in San Francisco) to a predominately seafood place. I can't stand to eat in a place where there's a lot of fish being cooked...the smell gags me...so that's another favorite place to cross off my list :(

Yellowstone and the Tetons more than made up for everything else, though. I'm ready to go again!

Hard to believe it's a Disney.
But I will sit and hearken, and be glad that through you great beauty has been wakened into song.

One of the great things about mandolin is that with 8 strings, you have a considerably greater chance than with the guitar, that any one of them will be in tune!

Except when you can't find the one that is not in tune. :)

Hi Cees,

Well, I won more stuff! :D

Besides the Serpent trio and Beth's tabor pipe, I won a T-shirt from Shanna Quay, a CD from a dulcimer site, 2 Alba whistles from Stacey at Easter, a pair of dulcimer hammers from a dulcimer forum and I won Dale's graphics contest with a pix of Einstine playing a whistle!

It's been a couple of good months, but I did miss your posting.

Welcome Back!

Breedlove,

It sure would be fun but I haven't a clue about running a forum and I have no money to bid with. :(

Sorry Tom, I'm not lucky at the Lottery. I spent $5 the other day and only got $2 back. :roll: I guess that's better than losing all $5 though isn't it? I will buy you one if I ever get to Connecticut though, You just never know do ya?! :lol:

Cheers,
Kathy :)
