Although I'm the wind player in this family - and though I never play any wind instrument except the penny whistle these days - I still had to justify to Rich my decision to get rid of this wooden flute. My reasons are (1) we have another, better wooden flute (as well as a solid silver Gemeinhardt): (2) this wooden flute was stuck headfirst in the dearly departed ponytail palm and is corrupted; and (3) the kids will never want it, and if they do, see point number one.
It took a supreme act of will to put it in the Goodwill box. Now that it's there, it is completely forgotten. Irrelevant.
