Will be a week today since "fully" arriving and settling into our mountainside "Casa". Today will be 3rd day in a row on the board (yep, chest is already all bruised up and my upper back shoulders are aching like mad, these are good things...it gets done with in another few days ). Kids are doing well, wife's mellowing out, I'm just pumped to be here. Miss my gear, oddly enough, and this will likely translate into my getting a nice acoustic or flamenco or something sooner than later, fingers need to "express" and "maintain".
Overall, it's all good. Crazy upheaval, but I knew this. Life starts to be lived at the edge of one's comfort zone. I can kinda attest to this concept.
More pics to follow - some surf shots hopefully (need a tele-lens for shots from shore so we'll have to await these...).
I have played acoustic many times for months without - plugging in. I also do the majority of my writing on acoustic. It makes for a much lighter rig...
