That is beautiful, Nomad. And a song which I can only describe as eldrich. It makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Like the cry of the wolves in the first part of the other video.

A few years ago, I was at an Irish ceilidh. It was winter and there was an open fire. We were all talking, singing, jamming. A girl I didn't know asked me to accompany for that song. After a few notes her clear bell like soprano voice just soared, carried us all right up into the night sky. Everyone shut up (and in an Irish ceilidh that is unheard of) and I just put down my flute and let her sing on alone. It was a gift I'll never forget. Thankyou Mary !!

The weather has been great for the past week.

Day time: 71* f

Night time 15* f

just remember though you could also get rain, so you need a mix of cloths.
