Thanks Lon. I feel it too, memories strong with Thanksgiving. Bittersweet, with the sadness of loss, gratitude can feel so strong too. So grateful for our beautiful natural world, the great bounty of things it gives to us, and all the good people who have helped improve this world and this life,...those here and those who have moved on. I will take your advice, using more time today to listen to music, the heightened mind state of missing and loving a good tool for getting deeper into the musical experience! Thanks Lon for the reminder!

Well said guys, Thanks for all you both contribute to the community and to all others who do also.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone

I am with you Lon in thanks for your friendship and guidance, and for all this community that has organically grown in such interesting ways. It is pretty amazing to look back, a big progressive and rich story. Steve, Bob, Randy and all the Decware folks and forum contributors, so much has been freely given over so many years... For me this is a basis for experiencing musical immersion more fully, not least, including the healing potential from natural harmonics... something Steve has worked so hard to bring out in real and lively ways.

Taking in bits and pieces, day by day, being with such an intersting group of musical explorers, it seems sort of normal. But looked at in retrospect, what a great education and enhancement of life we have gained from one another...everyone in their personal pursuits having their own emphasis in the exploration, but all with a common thread of making the musical experience realer, more compelling and entrancing.

For me immersion in wild nature is a medicine I need, especially in these recent times of great loss. But thinking now, returning from a trip in the wilds not long ago, I am reminded how much harmonically awake music can have a similar purity and effect, pulling us into a more clear mind state, another amazing medicine we can use every day.

Thank you all!

Sean, sorry to read of that double loss last year. In meager ocnsolation I can say that I think like myself you will soon be remembering only the wonderful things, and not the tragic ones. And also realize as I have that those we lost really do live within us, and that love never dies.

We really do have a special group here and we can look forward to another year ahead of assistance and revelation.

I would also like to thank so many of you, particularly Lon, for all the advice and support you have given me in my Decware audio journey. I received my ToriiMK5 three months ago and it keep getting better and better. I am on the waiting list for a UFO 2.1 and I expect to receive it around March 2025. Can't wait to begin doing some tube rolling and hear more about what these amps can do.

Happy Belated Thanksgiving to all of you!
