Thanks Irene~ It is great to have a place to build again and the country and our little piece of land is so inspiring. I really feel the spirit of the country here and hope it will be reflected in my work. I am keeping busy with building and always seem to have one on the bench for someone. As for doing anything with the beautiful mountain brook running through our property, it will remain as natural as nature has created it. It is a source of peace and tranquility watching it flow and dance over the rocks hearing it sing. (Anyway we have great electric service already!). You are certainly right, we do have a bit of heaven here!
I'd say with all that has been going in your life, Bob, you've done well with your dulcimer sales this year, even with the move and building a big wonderful new shop. you have a chunk of heaven there. Look into turning that little creek into some hydropower. not that hard you know. aloha, irene

there is beauty in simplicity. Has a customer been waiting for this one? Happiness is coming real soon, I'd say. aloha, irene
Hi Irene- I was contacted the day I posted pictures of it and it was purchased by a gent from New Jersey!
Beautiful. That butternut looks real nice.
Thanks Dusty. I tinted it slightly with BLO and then thin-cut shellac. It also has amazing sound properties as you know!
It doesn't look like the move south affected your devotion to quality, Bob!
Thanks Steven! It is ironic in that this dulcimer was purchased by a man up in... New Jersey!!
Very nice, Bob. I need to find some butternut.
