Great morning ...

We slept with the window open last night and this morning woke to the sounds of wind in the trees, birds, and wind chimes, and the room at a comfortable 65 degrees. Hexapuma realized I was awake, demanded scritches, fell against me purring and doing cat stars with his huge Maine Coon cat feet ... and put us all back to sleep!

As to normal sounds, we live in the country, pretty much, so some mornings we wake to (seasonally) the roar of chainsaws,snowmobiles, ATVs, log trucks, garden tractors or tillers. Often we have the sound of the nearby shooting range, with the rattle tattle of semi-automatics, or the pre-hunting season shotguns, and times come that they are combined with the sound of chopping, or cattle noises, which are hardly all of the "moo" variety. Birds, too. Some mornings the birds are raucous, with crows screaming at each other and blue jays echoing them and tweet of red wings and ... but today we had a quiet and serene oriental garden of a morning.

Happy day, for whatever day you're celebrating.

Steve - I was listening to Pandora Internet Radio and I was thinking about you when Warren Zevon came on. And then I was thinking - Steve knows about this website, correct? It is super.

I did use Pandora for awhile but got away from it ... I'm trying to recall why I stopped; perhaps there was a terms of service change at some point, or maybe they were throwing pop-ups at me?

Seems to be working today though -- thanksfor the reminder.

and now I see why ... they really are over insistent about getting that "register now!" across, I guess.

I actually didn't mind registering. Ever since Bill Ashford died (Free Form Rock) I have been looking for a decent site. I like that I can indulge in an artist for a day if I want or mix it up. BTW - I am making a quilt called Mainely Memories from my vacation there last summer. Your state rocks.
