So, I was messing around on the #mandolin nothing fancy, just noodling, and I found I really liked just playing around with the open string, 2nd fret and fifth fret on adjacent strings.
Then I decided to look up what 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 gets me on scale finder and it turns out to be the "scottish pentatonic" :blobcat_flagScotland:

The first recording was by #blues and #ragtime musicians "the #BlueBoys" in 1928, played on #mandolin and #guitar. As one of the classics of the ragtime genre, it returned to international prominence as part of the style revival in the 1970s.

#3GoodThings #ThreeGoodThings from Sunday:
Took part in a neighbourhood music jam. Lots of Beatles, some Grateful Dead, some songs that were new to me. MUCH more fun than when I tried last year, not knowing more than 4 chords. This time even managed to bring out an attempt at tremolo on the #mandolin when we played "Ripple".
Marked the August harvest with homemade corn muffins (with sweet corn mixed in) and the first beefsteak tomatoes from my deck garden. Yum!
And my sweetie, who inadvertently ate something that has given him fevers and shaking chills in the past, did not have the horrid reaction we were afraid of. Maybe anti-inflammatories and antihistamines helped. Don't want to try again to collect more data!

Every so often I like to tempt fate and use my mandolin to slice some veggies.
I always feel like I won a battle when I manage to not cut myself.
It adds the sweet taste of victory to everything!
