Such a strange object. I suppose it might have exited the chicken through the mouth as well? any theories? Can you write a tune about it?

Bliss discovered one of her chickens sitting on this object in the laying box. It has no smell. It appears to be layered, like a pearl. It feels a bit like a pink pearl eraser: firm but springy. I couldn't get Bliss's camera to focus any better than this. Ever seen anything like it? > Best, > Robbie > > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

While washing dishes after the potluck, Stephan, Bonnie, Caroline, and I all agreed how much we liked the new format you introduced. It kept our interest, stimulated our creativity, and really seemed to cement the learning. So I am really looking forward to future tunes session, but this week, alas, I have a conflict. I'm taking my mother to a late afternoon doctor's appointment tomorrow, and since it's Valentine's Day, I'm stay on to visit and share a meal with her afterward. That will be fun and satisfying in its own way, but I'll be sorry to miss tunes. Please let me know what tunes you polish up tomorrow, and I'll do my best to practice them on my own.

Here is a link to a youtube video of it. I recommend listening to the whole thing and then going back and listening only to the lament so it is fresh in your mind. It is also in the waltz book, I think. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ny2beJky_KM Bliss Get news and info about Double basses at http://www.facebook.com/mcinbass (no "friending" required) Check out my book The Covered Bridges of Washington County, New York http://coveredbridgebook.com Visit Honduras Community Support Corporation at http://www.hcsc-honduras.org Robert and Bliss McIntosh 1318 County Route 59 Cambridge, New York 12816 (518) 677-3151 mcinbass at aol.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
