    No audio gear for us this year, but my wife has decided to start learning guitar this year, so we’ve got something music related under the tree. Shopping for that gear has so fun that I’m tempted to get a guitar myself so we can learn together.

    Well, Santa has his chocolate chip cookies (homemade), meals prepped for tomorrow. Family in town, he was able to listen to music...

    So I guess it's time to wish my extended family a very merry Christmas to you and yours.

    Now off to go gobble down some cookies!

    This pic is the Keiko OG. For the old timers that remember... She was Janey and mine's daughter and we still mourn and miss her terribly. Anyway, shout-back to Johnny and to the rest of you polksters.

    Mele Kalikimaka and Hau'oli Makahiki Hou! I'm confident things are going to change for the better and 2023 is going to be an amazing year for America. Justice is coming and that's all I got to say about that. :)
