Marimba

Yesterday afternoon we went to the semi-annual Traditional Music Festival. It was my first time to hear "marimba". It's from Africa and so much fun.
Lots of dancing and clapping along. If you are interested you can read more about it and even listen at http://www.rattletree.com . And by happy serendipity Rattletree is playing again at the local Central Market on Thursday.

I also have a new photo editing program that I'm experimenting with, so while this is not the best photo of Rattletree, I hope it will be the correct size!

Well, shoot, that's too big! My program has choices of regular printed photo sizes, I picked 5 x 7inches. No choice in pixels. Next time I will try 4 x 6, maybe that will be more appropriate.

Good shot no matter what size.
Now you need to work on adding sound so we can enjoy the music with you.
The only major handicap in life is a bad attitude!
