I have recording software on my computer that will emulate almost any sound. This was set on solo violin. <br />Have a great 2012.<br />Cheers!Rick Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01005727239466916086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-3002774212415765982012-01-02T06:30:01.644-06:002012-01-02T06:30:01.644-06:00Is that you mum?

And who was that very grande dame at 2.48 with Jilda? <br /><br />Awww I recognise adorable Jordan and your office building adventures with this amazing carpenter fella! <br /><br />HAPPY HAPPY NEW YEAR!!<br /><br />Now were you playing the violin, a flute? I'm so non-musically talented and quite ignorant about such things but it was bugging me what instrument you were using!

It always makes me nostalgic too.<br />@ Lisa, yes I played it on our keyboard. It's an old traditional song played mostly on New Years Eve.<br />@Renay, New Years is one of my favorite holidays because it's a time to take stock of yourself. Shed old habits and start new ones that help move you in the direction of your dreams.<br />@Belle, we love our little house in the country. It's only about 1200 square feet (plus the laundry room, the screened porch, and the decks), but it's just right for us.<br />One of the best parts about it is that it's paid for :)Rick Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01005727239466916086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-88536405994053985542012-01-01T19:31:28.865-06:002012-01-01T19:31:28.865-06:00It was fun seeing all the pictures.
