Distracted by music

[altivo]

No rain today. Lots of noise though. On the Brit side, he's sawing down trees like mad and grinding them up. Why I don't know. He just hates trees. On the other side, there were family visitors including little kids, several dogs, and someone's mother who sits on the front porch shouting into a cell phone all the time.

The fox spent much of the day sleeping in the same spot where I photographed her yesterday. In fact, we both wondered at first if she were dead. But she would lift her head up and look at us if we came within about 30 feet of her, so we left her alone. I don't know where she has the babies stashed, probably not in the same place we saw them yesterday I'm thinking.

I realized that I'll be off on Wednesday, when one of Gary's more informal groups rehearses, so I'll probably go over to Mast House with him for that. He wants me to bring a flute, so I figured the Irish wooden one would be suitable. Which led to asking him for some of the tunes they've been playing, and then to pulling out a couple of my favorite recordings, Chris Norman and Grey Larsen. I'll have to do a little practicing. The 5-key flute has some significant differences in fingering, and is designed to work with typical fiddle keys of D, A, and G. Hence notes like C natural and F natural are quite obscure though they can be obtained with a bit of effort.

Your knowledge of musical instruments is interesting and varied.

You'll never find the babies! NEVER! waHAHAHAHA! XD

Speaking of loud cellphone users, I saw a schematic for a
cell phone jammer once online. I need to find that again.

at someone on the cellphone. With a button press in a pocket
the yelling turns to, "Hello? HELLO? Damn."* XD
