It's nice to take a moment to enjoy the ride amidst life's business (or is it spelled busyness?).  Thanks for the reminder, Paul.  It's an enjoyable piece you're sharing.

I have a 5-string Cello banjo. I wish I could play it as well as you do. Well done.

Love your creativity Paul, and love that CB sound too.

xnavyguy - In your bio you mentioned you played a baritone bugle in the drum & bugle corps. When I was a child I used to hear the bugle calls of the different military bands in the 4th of July parade in Bar Harbor, Maine. I had them all memorized and would wonder around the rocky coast singing them in my best bugle-sounding voice... bah, bah, bah-bah-bah-bah-bah... Later I took up trumpet. Hearing those bugle calls certainly made a big impression on me. 

Hairymare - It's really great when someone actually shares their experience of listening with you. Thanks. 

BlowingRockNC - Thanks for your comment. I noticed on your bio that you're retired and enjoying playing the banjo. Sounds like the trick setup!

Rick - I nominate you for most supportive BHO member. The strong sense of encouragement you put forth is always a positive force on this forum.

That's a nice comment Paul.  Off the top of my head I could come up with a pretty good list of folks who deserve that nomination, with you and Janet and several others right at the top.  But I appreciate your thought nevertheless.

Another really great tune! Well done, again! Keep the music coming. It inspires me to give my CEB-5 more of my time and effort.

BanjoRW - thanks for your kind words. The inspiration goes back and forth!
