I apologize for my short absence. My wife and I went wildlife photo hunting this weekend and it was a success. Next weekend is my birthday weekend and my wife is taking me to Colorado Springs. I will reduce my posting to the week only, saving my weekends for photograpic pursuits. I am overwhelmed by the massive amount of new subscribers. Just last week alone, new subscribers have tripled over the entire time since I started this podcast. My downloads feeds and increased by as much as 4 times. I will work diligently to continue to bring you unique classical pieces to continue attracting new subscribers - and all without advertisements. Some of you have asked if you could donate money to assist me in maintaining my podcast, in essence, becoming paid subscribers on a voluntary basis. Well, the skinny is.. I am not spending an excessive amount of money on this. I appreciate your desire to help and certainly can understand how people would want to ensure that this great music continues, I would run into tax questions I am not willing to endure by accepting money and sense my expenses are relatively low, I am not out enough money to resort to this so I would encourage you to donate the money to the American Red Cross, NPR's Classical Connections, The United Way or your local library with the clause that they purchase classical music CD's for sharing with your community.
