1. Incredible String Band, Pearls Before Swine, and Pentangle

I'm just in that kind of mood. I've loaded up all their songs. Any other ISB fans in DU land?

6. What a great era and genre!

Late 60's/early 70's Brit folk rock. I love all these bands and have records from all of them and some discs, even.

I'm pulling some new sounds now. Thanks for the great suggestion.

5. Just sitting outdoors mainly.

My house is an old stage coach station, built in the 1790s. My driveway is part of an old turnpike. I can sit on my lawn, and listen to the waterfalls near-by. It's a beautiful time of year. In another two hours, the coyotes will begin to sing their spookey songs. It's a great time of year, and a great time to be alive!

[shanti]

13. that sounds lovely!

i WISH i could hear a waterfall, but all i hear when i'm sitting outside in my backyard is the sound of the ever-increasing traffic on the freeway 1000 yds away:-(

[H2O Man]

14. yes, it is.

I think that everyone should take the time to sit quietly near a creek, stream, or river for long periods of time. The only person who lives near here is a 90-year old fellow who lived in my house 50 years ago. My children bring their friends to the falls, but other than that, it's isolated. Of course, you can hear airplanes at times. I took a few photos of my daughters near the falls; maybe I'll get my son to put one on here later.

[shanti]

15. you are a lucky man!

let me hazard a guess and ask if your DU moniker is the result of your living situation?

[H2O Man]

20. Close ....

.... maybe the other way around. For about 20 years, I worked as an assistant to Onondaga Chief Paul Waterman, one of the wisdom keepers from the oldest traditional native government in north, central, or south America. So the H2O Man is a tribute to him. I learned to the fullest extent that clean water is the first law of nature. I suspect that when people have "lost" their water for a day or two, they agree. (smile) Or if they are in a sweat lodge... Anyhow, this combined with a couple decades of working in human services resulted in my wife & I opting to live as isolated as possible, while still being close enough to access the benefits of the hamlets and towns a few miles away.

7. Col. Bruce Hampton and the Codetalkers

live show from the 2002 High Sierra festival.

[fudge stripe cookays]

8. Replacement CD copies of "Our Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart"

from Camper Van Beethoven and "Congregation" by the Afghan Whigs.

Had to sell mine a couple years ago when I was broke. It's good to have them again.
