Hi,

Well, I think it is a different kind of pipes.  Here is their website.

http://www.raleighpipersclub.com/

My exposure to the whistle has been self taught in the mountains of PA.  My friend who is a beginner on the lap dulcimer and I "practiced" together using most of her music.  So the tunes I play are a lot of folk music.  I went to the piper meeting last month and was so amazed at the talent they were willing to share with me.  All three of them brought their wistles and told me they would teach me everything they knew.  I missed this month's meeting because I got the weeks mixed up.  I have been working on a challenge tune for months and they learned it in a couple minutes.  So that is what I am working on now.  I would love to meet you all.

Pipers as in bagpipes? My hubby's son is a piper. We try to do a few highland games a year but nothing this year. Ahh well. You will have to record us some of your tunes and give us a listen.


Nothing much planned today other than finishing going through stuff and rehoming most of it.

Hi all,

I have the house all opened up and the cool breeze is a welcome sight!  Today, I have to practice. The pipers meeting is Saturday and I'm supposed to have this tune learned.  Yikes!  Nothing like cramming for my "exam" lol.  Next, I'd like to learn the tune, Silver Spear.  It is a very happy reel.

Well, I am officially a sign language tutor through WyzAnt.  I am hoping I will get some students and start making some bucks.  This has been my nitch for years and I might as well keep doing it.

Anyway, how are you doing?

Running errands with my mother in law. Have to drive her around because she is legally blind now.  Back here to finish what I did not get done today. Clean out my car. Watch the third part of Arthur and the Invisibles with the neighbor's lil girl. And possibly do some grilling outside this evening.

Hi all,

I have the house all opened up and the cool breeze is awesome!  Today I am returning something to WalMart and then to the bank.  I so enjoy it when hubby is off but sometimes the spending is overboard.  So, the rescuer in me is returning the watch I bought.

Other than that, not a lot planned.  You?

Yes it is Couch to 5K. It is a 9 week program. I actually walked, jogged 4 1/2 miles. It runs on 3 days a week for 9 weeks, but I planning on doing it at most 5 days a week. I have a set-up on my mp3 player that does the prompts of when to walk, when to run, and so forth. It's nice. Only wish I had started much sooner. BUT as with any exercise regimine (and YES this is exercise, LOL) check with your doctor first. I always make sure I do before beginning anything like that because who knows if there may be something wrong. Never pays to just wing it when it comes to health.

That is the link to the site. It has lots of resources. As for where I got my music with prompts on there, I don't really remember exactly where but if you look long enough you will find it. LOL.

 C25K is the Couch-To-5K running program (or at least that is what I have heard).
