I can’t just stare at my phone the whole furlough . I’m focusing on cleaning my basement as part of capturing my story. Sorting through all my stuff and purging what I don’t need for the future. Taking this photo I captured a ghost in the mirror. Zoom in.

We’re recovering from water damage and remediation. I have a-lot of stuff. Did you see the old rusty  trombone in the last photo? I recover it and other old items from my story to bring them into my now.

Not sure what’s on that mirror but it made for a fun cleaning sequence!

12 years in the 122n Army Band and all I got was this rusty trombone. Thanks to Chuck Lesogonich. I love it. I blew dome tiffs on it and it actually sounds great! I’ve made a place of honor for it on my military shelf. It fills a gap in my service record between the Marine Corps and the Public Affairs Office.
