Nice Day

It’s a nice day, but only about 50 degrees. Not really cold, but not exactly warm either. I had planned to mow the lawn yesterday, but I lost too much time trying to get a good recording for my next ASL music video. Thought I’d mow it today, but just went out to look at it and I think I’ll let it grow for another week before the first mowing of the year. It’s easier for me to see what I’m doing if I let the grass get a little taller before I mow it.

Yesterday, I did about twenty takes for the ASL music video, and I was not happy with any of them. Today, I did one take and I’m pretty happy with it. But I might do a few more takes, just to see if I like them better.

Tigers are winning. 4-0, bottom of the 6th.

Video Shoot

I got up at 6 this morning and I’m just trying to stay awake. I’m shooting my next ASL music video, but don’t know if I’ll get a good take today. It’s usually several tries before I get a take I’m happy with.

Silver

Like I call my favorite acoustic guitar Black Beauty, I decided I will call my bass guitar Silver. Though it is silver, I’m actually naming it after Benjamin Orr, who was The Cars’ bass player. When Benjamin Orr died, Ric Ocasek wrote a song about him called “Silver”.
