Hangin’ With Mr. Ted

me and Teddy the Himalayan

Enjoying a cool Sunday afternoon with our wanna-be-outdoor cat, Teddy!
(We don’t let him actually touch the ground except warm days in Winter …)

And what do I see from that chair? Its a nice view towards the house, even more pleasant with all the azaleas in full bloom, the sound of the waterfalls (just below the gargoyle) for our pond, the Japanese Maple … just a very soothing Sunday afternoon.

Lift them puppies!!

JBL Control Monitors-after
Our JBL Control Monitors in their new home on top of the media shelves!

I built the crossovers last week and they sounded great. Saturday was a rainy day so I opened the cabinets up by pulling the 15 woofers. Once open, I mounted the crossover to the inside of the cabinet, wired the 3 drivers to the network using thick copper zipcord, then after a few tests, Emma and I cleared the tops of the shelves and lifted these 100+ lb monsters up onto the shelves.

We lost a bit of Bass, compared to their previous position on the floor in front of the shelves, but they do sound nice and we have our floor back again!!!

Woohoo – Casey Stratton is on tour!

This weekend was our 9th Anniversary – 9 years ago on April 1st, Emma and I became a couple.
To celebrate, we bought tickets to see Casey Stratton at Jammin’ Java in Vienna, VA!

Casey posted the setlist as:
The Everlasting Voices / The Hardest Part
Cellophane
Sunflower
When the End Arrives
Harvest
Shenandoah
Opaline
Pray For Rain

Its a great show, Casey is very talented and has an amazing voice – if he comes to your town, by all means, go see the show!
