The Clydesdales Came To Town!
Actually, they came to Marion, an hour down the road. It was worth the trip to see them, and to learn a bit.
Rocco, one of the Wheel Horses.
Each horse had his specs and stats listed.
A question on my mind was how these big guys are shod so they can navigate paved roads without slipping. The shoes have Borium brazed on the bottom. Borium saves wear on the shoes and it is grippier on pavement than steel. The Clydesdales cannot go on polished concrete, so the arena they were in had Astroturf where the horses needed to walk. Smooth, decorative brick streets are dangerous, but navigable if care is used.
It was a good time. We went to Walt's Pizza afterward.

It does sound pretty, doesn't it? Thank You, Merle!

Camille Saint-Saëns Cello Concerto No. 1, 1872
We featured the Dance Macabre by Saint-Saens by several artists during October. Saint-Saens wrote much more, and this one is a good sample. Grab a cup of coffee.

Aluminum Beverage Cans From Beginning To End
There are no college classes on how to do all this. You have to learn it at SHK. A glaring gap in this video is the making of the beverage end, but it's a good vid. Back To The Old Grind!
