music

I had brought my flute with me on my trip to Arizona and did play it a few times. I’m glad I brought it. I finally unpacked it yesterday to play again. I’m always amazed that after I’ve been away from the instruments for a few day I still remember how to play them, but a few days doesn’t seem to do any harm. I didn’t bring the guitar, of course, since it’s a lot less portable than the flute. Two weeks away from it results in lose of callouses and a general feeling of “how did I strum this one?” I have finally learned to write down where I put the capo.
