Having recently built a couple speed bag platforms out under the open door & empty RV "garage", and having started to drum away every day, it seems the noise has stirred someone else in the neighborhood to start bagging again. Last night I was out there practicing and exercising, and between "bouts" While resting, I heard another speed bag off in the distance from somewhere in the neighborhood. Never heard that before, but we fell into a rhythem of taking turns "hitting" while the other "rested" and had quite a nice long session hearing each other drumming away.
Speed bag smoke signals?

That's pretty cool Randolph.
Maybe in the future that person, or you, will try to track down where, the other baggin' is goin' on.
Whenever a person asks me what i do for exercise, i'll mention the speed bag among other things. It's as if most people i run in to don't even seem to know what a speed bag is.
I usually say... :"You know... that tear shaped, small leather bag attached to a platform, that you see boxers hitting sometimes?"
Sometimes they say :"Oh, okay. Speed bag". HaHa

Long since the Indians "migrated" elsewhere, this area became a landfill so we basically live on an old pile of garbage where it seems the ants & fleas are immune to pesticides, and are like indestructible little mutant creatures, pester unceasingly.
I think we would PREFER being along the Mowhawk, wherever it is?Randolph Leslie Smith

"The Mohawk River is a 149-mile-long river in the U.S. state of New York. It is the largest tributary of the Hudson River. The Mohawk flows into the Hudson in the Capital District, a few miles north of the city of Albany."

Nice research work Zaza, I never heard of the Mohawk River before, much to my shame, but sure liked the fighting spirit of the Mohawk Indians as depicted in the movie, "Last of the Mohekans" which I am assuming are one in the same?Randolph Leslie Smith
