Old-Time, All the Time

FOTA Jam at Doug's House

Doug says:  Jane would love to get the tab for Rachel.  Susan spotted a phoebe.  Hugh spotted my wife’s organic composite pile.  The session combined playing with some teaching at slower speeds for those of us that are still learning (may we all be always learning …).  The first note was played at 2:30 PM, and the last note at 7:30 PM! 

Second FOTA coming soon – watch for announcements.  Please note:  “If you have an iota of sense, you’ll come to enjoy FOTA!”  Attached pictures capture the sights, and as Jan said, “Old Time music is not as good as it sounds … “ .  To which Doug replied, “Blue Grass makes dollars, and Old Time makes cents.” (quoting his former banjo teacher, Dennis Botzer).

Thanks to Vicki (B,G), Susan (F), Tom (F), Jane (B), Doug (B), Hugh (Cello), Kim (M) and Jan (G) for making the first FOTA Jam fun!
