It was in 2018 that I went past and noted an "inviting" looking road. This time we ascended beyond Jenny Creek...to the top where "dee hills ver uh-life mit dee zound uhf meeewwzik."
I bought the instrument from famous accordion refurbisher Tony Tomei, in Los Alamos. I've been noodling with it for exactly a year. I have zero talent but enjoy its bizarre sound and the kinesthetic experience. As you can see, I cannot *begin* to call myself compwtent. At best, I *might* be ready for a lesson.
That's even more admirable! I guess people's dance music would be the all-encompassing term. My faves are old-time American and "Hispanic"--mostly tunes I heard in northern NM and vicinity.
Oh, to be a lizard on top of the world. That's a nice looking camp.
ReplyDeleteAnon!
DeleteIndeed! Lizard looked quite pleased.
Camp was very nice. Far enough off highway to not hear it and great road to top of mountain.
Thanks for stopping by!
wow, accordion—admirable! I sometimes play one, but more often play fiddle with a competent accordionist.

What kind of music do you play?
