Things were gettin' pretty stale over there in Washburn land, then I got an invite to come over here and it feels like a reunion of sorts.

I'm an old retired fart and I've been playin' guitar for most of my life, 'course I haven't gotten much better at it for most of my life either, but the important thing is that it gives me a great deal of pleasure; when nothing else seems to work for me, my old constant companion is still there.

My second love is photography, well actually, music & photography have equal billing and there are peaks & valleys with both.

I live in a photographers paradise on the northern Oregon coast, I just love it here! I was so lucky to have a friend come along who had a piece of property to sell me, it's very modest, an old single-wide mobile home, but it's cozy and it's just perfect for an old single guy, with a bunch of cameras and guitars and a few songs inside.

Anyway, that's me in a nutshell, glad I made it here.

Oh, my guitars:

Antique Washburn Parlor (circa 1925)
Yamaha classical
Ovation 1983 Collector's Series
Martin OM-21
Epiphone Masterbuilt EN-546CE
And if it ever gets here, a Hagstrom Viking electric

Welcome Lunaray! I am from Tacoma originally, and have lifelong friends that I have spent much time with on the Oregon coast from Astoria to Waldport, with and emphasis on Cannon Beach. My old Nikon FE liked it a lot there. I spent a good deal of time at Lincoln Beach during law school in Salem, but that was not as nice as Cannon, esp. back in the late 70s and 80s. I am sure you will like it here! Welcome!

My daughter & grandkids live in Seaside, so I drive by Cannon Beach all the time.

I love my old Nikon FA!:AOK:

Thanks for the welcome.

Moonbeam!
I was gonna call him that, but of course that must already be one of his monikers at the Old Washout Retirement Home.

On second thought: *THIS* is the Old Washout Retirement Home ;).

Well here goes anyway.

Welcome Moonbeam!
 
Great to see you again Ray, WELCOME! :)
