Oud Beginner
Hello, friends,
It's amazing, but it has already been two months since the incredible fires that swept through Sonoma County in the middle of the night. Ours was among the first houses to be taken, before any of us knew what hit us. We had a few minutes to flee, so i grabbed my wife, my kids, and, of course, as much oud as I could! Luckily, many of my oud oils were in one place, but some ouds, a few hundred grams of wood, kyara, an electric burner, charcoal, and other treasures, like Mysore chunks, ambergris, and non oud essential oils, were not easy to gather in the smoke and dark, so they didn't make it out.
I have been a bit shy about posting, but have been encouraged by all the kindness I have found here.
I am hoping to slowly rebuild some of my collection, and would be immensely grateful for any help in doing so. At this moment, I can not buy anything, but at some point in the next few months, I will.
Thank you all so much for being such a great community!
Warmest regards,
Bob
