    I just love this website. I like to have it on while I work. It reminds me to breathe. The photos are very beautiful and grounding, and the music transcends. Thank you so much. I have the iPhone app as well, so I can listen when I’m away from home.

    Hi David (I think that must be your name) –
    On 10/17/16, my hubby & I met you & your wife at the SF Botanical Garden. Lovely talking with you.
    About that yellow bird near the main entrance, in the yellow-flowering tree. A expert birder posted (to SF Birds) that he spotted a Bullock’s Oriole in that tree that same day.
    I hope you got lots of photos for your app, enjoyed your Irish Coffee & found some tasty clam chowder. Safe travels!
    Trace & Michael

    For those of us who use the soothing music to drift off to sleep, could a timer be included to switch off the music – say 15minutes timer increments up to 2 hours?

  6. Alain says:

  9. Sue says:

    I love the music and slides. My favorite song is Marshmellow. It reaches deep inside me. I have been trying to figure out who Jake Burba is. I love all the songs. I find them relaxing and uplifting. Thank you. Please never take them away from us.

    Beautiful site, for the eyes & ears! ( Reminds me a little of rainymood.com.) Thank you for creating it ๐Ÿ™‚ I will be sharing it!

  11. Marie says:

    Your music saved me, where can I get more please.

    • admin says:

      Thank you for writing us. We are so glad our music has helped you to rest! We will have more music soon!

  12. Amanda says:

    Hi, I love your app, very restful peaceful music which helps me sleep. Unfortunately, since last week, I can’t connect on the ipad as it says there is no connection. I have deleted the app and re-installed, but same problem. I recommended the app to a friend who has the same problem. Please can you advise. Many thanks

    • admin says:

      It should be back online. I am not sure what happened. Let me know if it is not working for you.

    I can’t get enough of Appalachian Muse, I just repeat it over and over. It inspires me to slow down and enjoy my two small children instead of fussing over schedules and other things that might otherwise be tempting to deem more important…this might sound odd, but it makes me think of how fast time goes and how what must seem like just a moment ago, my great-grandmother was pressing her cheek to her babies like I do to mine so often, and that a mother’s love is the same generation to generation. It makes me feel closer to my family somehow. ๐Ÿ™‚ (It’s interesting to think of how each person interprets music based on their life experiences/personality, I’m sure everyone feels something different when they listen to a song!)

  14. Debbie says:
