Wow, I have slacked off on blog posts!! We have been so crazy busy with trips and the general insanity of the weeks has increased!

Just wanted to share these downloads I’ve been enjoying from noisetrade. Also, if you don’t know what noisetrade is, you should. Learn about it here: http://www.noisetrade.com/info/about

Music Monday: Long Time Traveler…

It is fall, and back home in the mountains, the whole world seems to be falling asleep or dying before the long winter. Long Time Traveler, by the Wailin’ Jennys, is a fitting song for this time of year. It is sad and beautiful and hopeful all at once. There didn’t seem to be a more official video online… so just enjoy the stunning harmony of their voices and the beauty of the song.

These fleeting charms of earth
Farewell, your springs of joy are dry
My soul now seeks another home
A brighter world on high
I’m a long time traveling here below
I’m a long time traveling away from home
I’m a long time traveling here below
To lay this body down
Farewell, kind friends whose tender care
Has long engaged my love
Your fond embrace I now exchange
For better friends above
I’m a long time traveling here below
I’m a long time traveling away from home
I’m a long time traveling here below
To lay this body down
I’m a long time traveling here below
I’m a long time traveling away from home
I’m a long time traveling here below
To lay this body down, to lay this body down
