THE DRUMMING MARATHON CONTINUES....

I woke up at 6:20 and fell back to sleep until 7:45.  Fortunately, Barb was out there ahead of me getting the horses set up for the morning.
 It started to rain and a lot of the snow was gone.
 Sheets were put on the horses, as the temperature was supposed to go up to 50.
 I put most of the hay under cover.


 This is one ugly time of the year...
 L'orange....
 Seymour and Sid took it easy in the house.
 Well, it's Saturday....and a regular drumming day.  It has turned into a nonstop weekend.
 One of the drummers encouraged me to try one of the bass drums...a very simple part.  I gave it a shot and want to learn more.

Steady work today....


I left at 4pm and made a stop at Wegmans.  Meanwhile back at the farm, Finn and Cop arrived for the evening.
 Their toys were everywhere.

A salad and Ralph and Rosie's Pizza for dinner.



 Then, for a change, it was time to get out the drums and bells so the boys could get into it.
Finn is a natural


Cooper got in the act too.
I'm saturated (and tired).
Night all.
