I had to move some reluctant cattle today - they had broken down a fence and were eating bales that are reserved for a later date.  The dogs were awesome - I barely had to do anything.  I don't know how my parents farmed cattle for 40 years without herding dogs.  Wait, no, I do know how - lots of running and swearing.

Visited an Open house at a stereo store today (Fidelis for those in MA/NH who care; they moved from Derry NH to northern Nashua NH).

 

Got to hear some nice gear, heard some lovely vinyl, met some very nice people, and a few industry folks: Vinnie from Red Wine, Yoshi Segoshi from Sakura Systems (imports the 47 Labs gear to US), a well-educated gent named Paul from Bricasti (they make an expensive but nice DAC, as well as a bunch of professional gear).  A bit of live entertainment, guitar and flute from a couple of nice Jewish ladies.  All in all a good time, and I actually didn't spend any money!

 

They had the Audeze LCD-3 there, and I heard it from an Auralic Taurus amp as well as Vinnie's Isabellina amp/dac.  Pretty nice, even very nice, but I still preferred my Stax and Senn 800's more.

 

Off tonight to meet my mother-in-law a sister-in-law/family who are up visiting.

Bricasti is pretty much considered among the best reverb units money can buy today.

If you enjoyed anything recorded in the last 5 years or so, you've heard one plenty of times.

Thursday: Wrapped the pieces of Peter's bunk bed up 40 gal trash bags and plastic wrap.

Friday. Loaded the bed into the back of the pickup truck (luckily I like puzzles) and we drove to Republic, MO to deliver the bed to my niece for Peter's two first cousins, once removed.

Saturday: Hung out with various cousins, nephews, nieces, and grand nephews/nieces and then drove home.
