This carpet must have inspired Mr. Swiss as he uses it for parking his drums on it. He was a jazz drummer for many years as a hobby, but the golden oldie years have now taken their toll on his back. He still manages to sit in now and again on a session, but perhaps when you reach the age of 82 you prefer to listen and go with the rhythm more than actually going into action. He still has two sets of drums and they are parked in our basement hobby room, so now and again if he is tempted he will still beat to the rhythm. Why the carpet? If you hammer away on the the floor the drums might begin to slip away.

Mr. Swiss is impressed. Someone knows his drums. It was the first one he bought when we were married and he still uses it.

He played since he was a teenager. Jazz was always his love – modern style. He placed in different groups in our area.

Love the story and use of the prompt. I’m still puzzled on a post.

Glad you like it. I am sure you will find something. My cars could have written a book about carpets

I wanted to play the drums but I couldn’t because my mother said “girls don’t play drums.” I guess it’s a little late now. Oh well.

I can play them with the brushes. Mr. Swiss showed me how to do it. Otherwise I did not have any interest. I find them an inconvenient instrument to move around
