The horses and donkey goats the pig have all been fed and let out. And the guys and friends have been through the mess hall. And now the boys are plugging into amps and tuning up. I am stretched out on the sectional with a golden retriever behind me laying down and am using a chocolate lab as a pillow I have the wood stove blowing hot. The furry boys love the heat as they are getting arthritic in age.
I smile as I listen and watch these teenagers tune guitars the one boy borrowed my I phone to go to different room to tune his bass. And now all three are sitting around in a circle jamming softly through 1 watt tube amps. And they will stop ask me hey dad how does that sound I reply awesome. Hey fellas how about some RHCP or Doobie brothers in a request.
Hey dad you wanna sit in and jam I decline I tell them. I just enjoy laying here with the furry boys and listening to you all jam. I ask them when it gets warmer towards the afternoon you fellas wanna hit a trout stream they reply sure.
