Marya & I spent Halloween in Seattle with our daughter's family. Whew, what an experience. Perhaps 800 trick or treaters, An afternoon street party in Magnolia Village, Crazy but fun.
Pumpkin Parade
Incredible amount of candy doled out
And an impromteu concert from a treo of cute three year olds.
even saw a strange new breed of lion dog
Despite all of the fun, strange costumes, crowds of tricker-treaters, we somehow survived to return home to more normal pursuits. but then I went to visit Luthier George Thomas and found him working on this monstrous harp guitar.
George tells me that this huge instrument is a 1906 Gibson Harp Guitar. He plans to get it back together and string it up.
If you want a true musical oddity give George a call. I think he plans to sell it once it is playable. Look at that huge hand carved back. If you want it just google George Thomas Guitars, Bellingham.
