Yesterday, I thought I heard some music coming from outside and realized my neighbor was out playing his trumpet. It was really lovely. After a few minutes I decided to get my camera and step out to get a video:
Maybe he was camera shy or whatever but he started goofing around and playing silly stuff as you can see. I think he was trying to "score" his son's skateboarding and also made a horse whinnying sound. As I was waiting patiently for a real song, I realized my phone was ringing.

I stopped recording and jumped inside to answer the phone and it was Lo. Lo that is going with me to New Orleans in 4 weeks. For Halloween. The Glinda to my Dorothy.

I stepped into the junk room because I smoke in there. It's at the front of the house and the window was open. Just as I sat down to tell her what I had been doing, he started playing "Somewhere Over The Rainbow."

Whoa!!!!
Cool. The only "music" I hear in my neighbourhood is when the young folk drive by with their bass a-thumpin'
Way better than the bagpipes an old neighbour of mine used to practice.
Then again, he'd not likely be playing Somnewhere Over the Rainbow - I hope!
Jazz,
~~Yeah, no kidding. I get a lot of these things and that one was really big.
Xup,
~~I live on a short street at the end by the cul-de-sac and we still get that from the kid next door.
VioletSky,
~~Now I want to check youtube to see if that exists!
If I videotaped my neighbors I'd have to bleep out a few words. Lucky you to get this kind of entertainment, and how cool that he played that tune!!
I've never heard a horsey trumpet. Way cool!
Scarlet,
~~Your neighbors sound like real characters.
Carole,
~~I take it you didn't hear him that day?
Too bad you didn't go ahead and record that...lol! Especially if he thought you weren't recording anymore....
Gee, I did not hear him from here. Glad you caught him on video.
Naomi,
~~I wish I had caught that!
Carole,
~~You would have loved his "Somewhere Over The Rainbow"!
