I disagree, considering this country was founded as a CONSTITUTIONAL Republic. The only ones trying to change things are the progressive left with their backwards agendas, they're trying to turn America into the Soviet Union.

Having so much fun! Hope you and yours are all well!

Nice. We do a little of that too :-)

Thanks so much! We LOVE it!

Thanks! If you forward to about 2:26 at this video, you'll get a better idea of how I set up the whole rig. Hope this helps! th-cam.com/video/Dzxo6OqZX1w/w-d-xo.html

Hey Jim -- if you word search "snare for inside cajon" you'll get lots of options. Here's the link to one from Walmart that looks like the ones I used. www.walmart.com/ip/Half-Design-Steel-Snare-Wire-40-Strand-Drum-Spring-for-Children-Snare-Cajon-Box-Drums/277547308?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=101043412&adid=22222222222389124142_10001062788_1202866399005740_pla&wmlspartner=wmtlabs&wl0=e&wl1=o&wl2=c&wl3=75179256244214&wl4=pla-4578778785503184&wl5=&wl6=&wl7=&wl10=Walmart&wl11=Online&wl12=277547308_10001062788&wl14=Wire%20snares%20for%20inside%20cajons&veh=sem&gclid=e456e482ffc9128573b182c1628d158b&gclsrc=3p.ds&msclkid=e456e482ffc9128573b182c1628d158b

Thanks so much! We had a real blast at the lighthouse and couldn’t recommend it more highly!

Thanks so much! Really appreciate the comment! (Are you any relation to... you know... him?)

Thanks so much! We’ll definitely post a follow up 🤓

Great call -- thanks for the advice and the kind comment!

Hi! We laid down the plastic a few weeks ago -- the idea is to essentially kill everything underneath it... grass, weeds, seeds, etc. Then we remove the plastic, lay down the cardboard, then the compost/manure, and then the wood chips. We tested a little area -- if you go to the 53 second mark in the video, it's in the upper right of the frame. There are three green rows of strawberries. The vid doesn't do justice to how well they're doing! I can't swear it's because of the cardboard method, but the lady from whom we originally purchased the strawberry plants did it this way, and the plants did great! We'll see how it works for other fruits and veggies this growing season. Good luck with your beds!!!

Thank you! We LOVE the cascades too. A few weeks ago we spent some time in that part of the country on the New Dungeness Spit as volunteer lighthouse keepers. SO beautiful up there!

Thanks so much! Whether you need some amplification on the cajon depends on size and acoustics of venue. Just the box should do for coffee house type gig, but if your in a club or larger event space, you’ll probably want to mic it or look at buying a cajon with a built in mic. Have a ball!

@@thisislifesong313 Thanks. I actually ended up getting a cajon with build in pickup.

Thanks so much Amigo! Happy New Year, Dude!

Wow, thank you!

Thank you 😊

Thanks so much, Patrick! I sure appreciate the kind comment. And I'm right with you on the "looking back" thing. Seems like Jordan Davis wrote a song that tells the story of exactly where I am in life :-)

Thanks for the like! Nope, I didn't write this one... but wish I did :-)

Yep-gives me a whole new appreciation for drummers! 🤣

Thanks! The bass pedal is a Latin Percussion 1501 Cajon Pedal, and the snare is just an entry level kick bass pedal for a typical drum kit. Hope you have some fun with this, and please post some vids of you using your rig when you get it set up :-)

Thanks!

Thanks so much-REALLY looking forward to this “next chapter!”

Thanks so very much-I really appreciate the kind comment!

Thanks so much,

Thanks so very much!

Thanks! So glad you found the lil vid useful! Have fun!

Hey Greg - thanks for the kind comments! Here's a link to another video that takes a much closer look at all the hardware. The bass kick is a Latin Percussion entry level. The Snare kick is just a cheap bass kick pedal mounted on a couple of inches of wood to give it the added height, and the wood block is a couple of acrylic wood blocks mounted on an embarrassingly makeshift contraption I made out of some scrap in my shed (LOL) but it sounds pretty good. Hope you find this helpful, Amigo! th-cam.com/video/Dzxo6OqZX1w/w-d-xo.html

sorry I didn’t reply sooner, but wanted to say thank you so much!

Well we don't need "3 legs" for impressive foot drumming. What the guy showed in the video is cool, but I feel he's sort of missing out on what's possible with foot-only drumming. Sounds to me like he used each foot to play only 1 drum sound (I.E right foot only playing bass drum, for example, and left foot playing either snare drum or wood block, for example). While this does easily allow you to add percussion to the guitar playing, it glosses over the fact that it's actually possible to hit more than one pedal with just one foot (depending on your setup of course). For instance, instead of using only one foot for bass drum and only one foot for snare drum, you would instead use the toe of one foot for the bass drum, and the heel on the same foot for the snare drum. This means you could do something else with the toe and heel on the other foot: the heel could play the wood block while the toe could play something like a pedal-controlled tambourine or cymbal or something. This can sound so much more interesting than just a bass drum and either snare drum or wood block. Listen to a guy called Cam Cole for an example of what's really possible with foot drumming like this. It sounds damn impressive. And yet he's doing it all by himself, while also playing guitar and singing, with no other musicians!

Hi Kirsty-happy to send them to you if you like :-).

@@thisislifesong313 yes please that would be lovely. How do you want to do that?

@@kirstylumb1847 you could send me an email at thisislifesong@gmail.com

I’d love to hear/see what you come up with!

I am so very sorry for your loss. I pray that time and love of family eventually replaces the pain of your loss with the warm memories of your lives together. Today your paths are parted but you will meet again in time. God bless and keep you, and I hope the song brings you some comfort.

Hello mare, how are you doing ?

@@thisislifesong313 it brings much comfort, thank you

My husband and our anniversary is February 14th too! Married 40 years until his death from COVID! Your story sounds just like mine. I will be praying for peace

@@blondiesummer1867 how are you blondie?
