Osiyo Bro, Since I have been home I have been busier than a one arm paper hanger, lol. Well been on a FM station in K.C., almost done with CD#19 with a brother here in K.C., both doing flutes. Have a manager I am trying to train, then trying to decide what I say yes to and what I say know to, with all these emails. We need to stay in touch and figure out how we can come together with a CD of you and myself. Blessings Brother and hope all is well, Wa-do'. TerryLee
