Looking suave in my Solar Eclipse glasses.

Banjo came out pretty good. Now I need to learn to play it better.
Linda and I are going to drive a few hours on 8/21 to view the total solar eclipse. Just tried these glasses out with the sun. They work!

Sweet banjo, "Dude"!   You rock the dark sunglasses, too.  Don't forget to shoot the moon for all of us, Uncle John ;)

Nice looking guitar. Now I'm craving a moon pie :)

Nice looking banjo UJ! Must be before our time, lunch for 5 cents! Sunglasses give you star power, not ZZ's cheap either. Happy moon gazing!

Thanks friends.  Linda and I are looking forward to driving a few hours to see the eclipse.  Hence the special glasses.   I am pleased with the banjo, although it is not very loud.   I am trying to learn how to do a two finger picking pattern.  It may take a while.
