    Default Holidays....(on a farm...)

    This saturday we will go on a week long holiday (no Jimi75 posts during that time....yes you will enjoy...hahahahaha). We will live on a farm and my kids will have the chance to take care of the animals the whole day long.....I will not bring a guitar with me...creative break...

    I'm hoping for adventurous holidays and I have no doubts the kids will love it.

    Cool Jimi, have fun! Maybe you'll get some good inspiration for playing guitar too on that farm.

    That should be a blast for the kids. I used to visit relatives who had farms growing up and eventually ended up growing up on a ranch/farm myself. It's a great lifestyle. Be careful of your hands if you have to do farm work and have a great time.

    Thanks my friend! I will enjoy it and I am sure to get some inspiration for my music out of that lifestyle. I will definitely watch my hands, had enough probs over the last few weeks as you guys know...

    Have fun! Although I like short visits to a city, I much prefer vacations in the country.

    You could sing the P.D.Q. Bach Bluegrass Cantata while you're out there. It ends with this classic line, which I hope I have spelled correctly (probably not).

    Don't know if you are gone already, but if you are and don't read this until you get back, I hope you had a good time.

    I've made a few "vacation" trips to friends with farms. Being an inner city boy most of my young days, being out on a farm was great. Even when it meant work, there was something relaxing and rewarding about it. The reward was a clear head and some of the best breakfast food I ever had (breakfast being my favorite meal).
