I found these cool vintage strings in my music room. When I first met my friend Ken Hamm, he had a hippy leather pouch to keep his slides, capo and string changing gear in. My mom got me this similar rig, which I have somehow managed to keep for damn near 40 years! Tuning fork!

Speaking of candles, my nerd candles, aka the candle line I named after Brother XII to give me an excuse to talk about archaeology and my research with folks at markets, should now be available in the Nanaimo Museum gift shop 👀 Check them out if you're on island, and support the museum!
