Nesting Ranch: 2014

Music for Nesting Ranch

This is a fun collection of old record cover themes by the Melachrino Strings Orchestra. The music is great for rainy days and the crackle of the record (these definitely have crackles at $1 each from various estate sales) that either can take the place of a fireplace or inspire you to get a fire going. Cup of tea and cat on your lap music. Stroll thru a magazine, a catalog, an old photo album or tattered gardening book. Chop up veggies and get a big pot of soup going. Comfort music all the way through, be dining, reading, or ... courage and confidence.
