Sounds like a good evening.

In answer to your question, most of the images in the music slide shows come from Wiki Commons, & are public domain images.<br /><br />Please stop by again!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15687192784861682991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821243838031243709.post-54139776053619138962009-07-05T19:19:34.401-07:002009-07-05T19:19:34.401-07:00I just stumbled upon your blog.

I always aspired to play old timey music and own banjo, dulcimer, recorder, ocarina, tin whistle, etc., but I am just not musically talented. I played with the instruments more than played them. It was therapeutic. Then I ran my hand through a table saw and couldn't afford to get it fixed. That ended the therapy. Viewing your video and browsing your other posts, I really, really like your choice of stills and old time pictures. Do you browse internet museums for them, or are they from your personal library. They are wonderful. I look forward to following you often.The Old Gray Egghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12118198647200105431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821243838031243709.post-62792628220547621012009-07-05T16:04:54.326-07:002009-07-05T16:04:54.326-07:00Hi Willow:

It has a lovely sound. <br />So glad you & Eberle had a fun evening & your show was a success!<br />Oh, and Gertie is a great little dog! The only problem she has is that she is terrified of children. Something must have happened in the year before I adopted her that made her fearful of children.<br />We enjoyed our little walk around town. Today's post will have the old residential part of Bastrop. Hope you'll come back for a visit.<br />Happy weekend!Cheryl Catohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13294358830518520566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821243838031243709.post-14958743672048212092009-07-05T10:09:04.977-07:002009-07-05T10:09:04.977-07:00Hi Rose Marie & TFE:

I do produce all the slideshows of our original music, & enjoy it quite a bit. Glad you liked this one!<br /><br />TFE: Glad you liked it.

Did you produce the You Tube slide show? It was so perfectly paired with your music. BRAVO!Rose Marie Raccioppihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327247225256540829noreply@blogger.com
