OT my latest project
Hi, All,
I know this is off-topic but I wanted to show my latest DIY project. One of the other "things" I am known for other than kilt-wearing is playing the native flute.
A Russian song and dance group was here last week and my choir got the chance to rehearse and perform with them--they had such energy and fire and despite very poor turnouts at their gigs they remained so positive...
They do both traditional folk music and modern interpretations of it. I especially found their wild Cossack dancing to remind me of the horse culture of the American plains.
I wanted to share some of our native music, so I made them this flute. My Russian is quite rusty but I hope the inscription works (laughing.)
Thanks for letting me post this,
Moosedog

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

Whooooeeee - don't get me to lying!
My less than elementary Russian was learnt from Russian 'tourists' when I was working for Uncle Sugar's Customs Service.
