Holidays and Pandemics
Good morning,
This past week has spoken the language of winter. The winds, the rains, and the dip or two below the freezing mark drives home the message for the need to bundle up and locate firewood. Darkness is upon us these days in more ways than one.
- Covid-19 has made a stronger presence in our world. Of course this was expected and we were warned earlier this year by scientists and doctors who know.
- In the northern hemisphere, our daylight continues to shorten and the night time increase.
- The weather has entered or is entering the stage where traveling conditions will be questionable at 5 in the am on Saturday mornings.
I am not someone who backs down from challenges, however, with Covid-19 being a very real risk, I do not wish to take the chance to become infected. That stated I have been someone who does not typically come down sick. But I also have not been this old before. So I desire to reduce my risks.
I have chosen to pre-record my radio show for your listening pleasure. The past two times I have done this has allowed me to enjoy audio production again. Recording my announcements of the station IDs, the post or pre-announcing of the music and creating my show to the second has been so much fun.
I hope you did not attempt to call the studio during my show recently. Since I was not there to answer, I feel bad if you have.
Thanks again for tuning in and sharing this time and music together.
Happy Holidays and please remember to wear your mask and stay healthy.
Walk in Peace,
Tall Feathers
