Learning the harmonica

16 02 2008

So today we were at Outdoor World looking for something to blow $50 worth of gift cards on.  I remember seeing a harmonica and learning DVD in the store the last time I was there so I went hunting. I found it and snatched one up for $15.  I figured I could learn how to play it and take it with me backpacking this summer.  As soon as I got in the car I cracked open the plastic packing and started blowing on it.  My two children’s eyes brightened and they both clambered to play it.  Ever since then I haven’t gotten it back.  My kids have been fighting over it for the last 6 hours and my wife is in the kitchen right now trying to play O’Shenandoah, my favorite song.

I think tomorrow we are going to go hunting for a couple more.  I didn’t realize this was going to be such a big hit. My wife says she saw two different kind at REI for $15 too.  Mine is in the key of A….so I think we will try and find a key of C one.

I WANT MY HARMONICA BACK!
