Where is North American Guitar located? Not North America I presume. They started out in London but now have a showroom in Nashville. They have fairly recently joined forces with (?) Carter vintage guitars. thenorthamericanguitar.com/pages/about-the-north-american-guitarThey sell non-American guitars sometimes. Frequent nice instrument demos on YouTube. Carl Miner makes up lots of pleasant little ditties.

My neighbor kindly helped me load my motorcycles onto my motorbike trailer yesterday so that I could take youngest son out for riding lesson this morning. He had never been on a motorcycle before. It is just damn fun to watch people, especially your own kids, struggle and learn a new skill. Fortunately my brother has about 40 acres of land to ride around. The hay has been taken off of it, so we had some nice soft ground for him to fall on! Really only one spill.
Then I put him on the back of my bike and showed him some of the places where I used to live and ride motorcycles. My 1,000 acre motorbike plaqyground (logging roads) is now restricted to horses, bicycles and hikers. I understand that many more people now enjoy the woods that I had available to me in my youth, but, selfishly, I really wish I could still ride motorcycles back there.
Anyway, a great outing with my son that we will likely both remember for a long while, and, if he has to, he will have some knowledge of how to escape (the zombies, Nazis, Trump, Republicans, Democrats, Borg, Biden, Newsmax, CNN, FOX Editorials, MSN Editorials, etc.) on a motorcycle.
On my Honda CFR 300L Rally, I am averaging 69.1 MPG. Now, if it would just not rain in Western Oregon for 9 moths out of the year, I would have economical transportation.

Rainy day here but I needed a day off. Since moving here 16 years ago our Internet access has sucked, DSL at best though I tried Hughesnet but it sucked too. There is fiber being installed in rural areas but we weren't on the list. A friend over on the bay side said when they were laying the cable around his area he asked if they'd do his road and they did so he got broadband. The other 3 owners on my road had asked but had been quoted a couple of thousand bucks to get the backbone installed and they wouldn't pay that. I had been assuming it wasn't going to happen but my friend said it couldn't hurt to ask so I did a couple of weeks ago. Initially they said no but last Tuesday a guy showed up to do a site survey and make a determination on whether they would install a backbone cable. Got a call last night and they said they would install the cable at no cost to me or the other owners although there would be the usual installation charge of $100 if I or they wanted the cable installed to the house. That's OK with me and I may yet get broadband. They said it would take maybe 30 days to have the cable installed. Hope it happens. Good luck, Bruce. Fast internet is a true blessing! Plus, you'll be able to call me a pinko commie even faster.π Sorry 'bout the pinko commie slip on Facebook I thought all your friends knew.

It was a Cadillac gig. The event set up the awning, gave us reserved parking near the stage, and even helped us unload.
We are not used to that kind of treatment.
