Finally, a clip that wasn’t ITM. I liked the solidness of your low notes.
I love that freakin’ avatar. The best ever.

Yes, innovative! But his arm is moving so fast, I can’t tell what kind of flute it is. ![]()
Over the years, I’ve cut, split, piled, hauled, and burned hundreds of cords of wood, and have “burned out” a number of stoves, too.
In the pitch of winter, at -25 C and colder, a stove can “eat” a cord a week, easily, as it’s the only heat I have, in a circa 1790 house.
Today is a warm day, and right behind me is an unlit stove, over which I have played flutes, just to keep my fingers warm and flexible.
Indeed, my computers are near the stove, for about the same reason, and sometimes I have to let them warm up before I can use them.
Yup, I’m one happy camper!

1790!! ![]()
That is a VERY old house! Sounds quaint and rustic and…
BAH! Give me central heating and air any day of the week! ![]()
i just went camping for the first time in a long time. i never realized how wet people must have been. i really enjoyed it–it sounds like you’ve got the life! can we see a pic of your house?
:boggle: 1790!! :boggle:

Yeah, it’s not exactly modern, and civilized, etc.
For instance, the stove is in the kitchen, and at night in the winter I shut the surrounding doors, to keep the heat in that area of the house.
Moreover, in the middle of winter, in the room I sleep in a glass of water could freeze solid, and break the glass, overnight.
In the morning, I can make a dash for the kitchen, and find at least some heat.
There is no air conditioning, other than to open the windows.
I love it!
However, a musician friend of mine lives a little over 69 degrees North, where winter temperatures can reach -50 C and below (as she says, at -40 C the world stands still), the sun disappears for several weeks on end, and winter there is much longer than it is here. So, I count my blessings, thank you.
