Grizzly Bears

I just spent a wonderful vacation with my wife in Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone. I took videos of some of the animals we saw, but the one of the grizzlies was my favorite. We were fortunate to be at the right place with my new video camera (with a good zoom lens) and what we saw was fasc...

Re: My new goldie low F + a little waltz

I liked the video. I almost started to type the tune on google search to find the notes, thinking this is one of those traditional tunes I want to learn, when I read more closely that you wrote it. Nicely done.

I think you will have had several hundred people moving as fast as they ever have to click on this--each one knowing it couldn't really be true, but just maybe. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Re: Tsunami report from Hawaii

A number of islands in the Pacific that are homes to numerous (millions of individuals actually) sea birds species were devastated when several islands were completely covered by the tsunami. A rather special 60 year albatross and her chick survived although the chick was washed from the nest. Unfo...

Re: Tsunami report from Hawaii

When I originally posted on the damage in Hawaii, I reported that it was minor. By comparison this is true. But there was some significant damage on some of the Islands--much that came a bit later than the first wave (in some a kind of bounce back effect between the Islands. Here's the report: http:...

Tsunami report from Hawaii

Stayed up all night waiting and watching the reports, listening to the sirens go off every hour. Our place is just out of the evacuation zone, so we didn't need to leave our house as did others. Only minor damage here and there across the islands. Nothing bad at all, really. Here's the latest: http:...

Re: Kevin Crawford low whistle

Jerry's right that Grinter is the whistle he's playing on the clip. He played the same in concert here a few years ago. When he played low metal whistles (as with the others in the band) he was playing Chieftains. At that time, at least, he didn't play any MK whistles. And, of course, he played the ...
