Kendra,

Yup, Amazing Grace or Southwind. . . Please let me know the preferred keys for the tunes and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks Geeks.....I have missed everyone!

Robin, it will be wonderful for Mark to join you, I didn't mean to leave him out....

We can also try Amazing Grace or Southwind or something else that you suggest....so sorry about your neck problems, hope they go away soon!!!!!! Doggone it is right!!!!

Wish you could come, Stephanie!

Got it, Kendra! I'll fiddle around with Old Joe Clark & Golden Slippers on the BD and make some kind of noise. Mark and I will probably play together (guitar & BD) for my demo if that's okay. (I've been struggling with neck problems for months and that's curtailed my music play of late, doggone it. )

Thanks ya'll for the welcome back! I hope I can stay awhile!

Robin, check the Sat. concert schedule on the Coshocton Dulcimer Days website. The spot called "Meet the Dulcimers" is where I would love you to join us with your bowed ducimer. I think it is at 11:45-12:20...... we will probably play something easy together like Old Joe Clark, or Golden Slippers, or........suggestions please.....

For the rest of you to know what I am talking about, at Coshocton Dulcimer Days this year, I have taken one of the 35 minute concert slots and introducing the people to the different kinds of dulcimers/styles......I am playing noter/drone style, Hunter Walker is demonstrating a modern style, Robin is demonstrating bowed dulcimer, and Theresa Halsey is going to show the hammered dulcimer. Each person is going to say a little about the instrument/style, then play an example of a tune. At the end we are all going to play a tune or two together as time allows. I think it will be awesome and also prove that all dulcimers can be played together. I can't wait to try out this idea......

Anyway, I am glad to be back and thanks again everyone for the welcome back....

Dulcerina-

I think you all had it worse in far southern Ohio than we did, Kendra. Our satellite internet goes out when there's heavy rain and, surprisingly, we had working internet through most of April and May.

Won't be long 'til Coshocton!

Glad to see you back. God hasn't told me to build an ark yet, and that's beginning to make me nervous. I been good, ain't I?

Wow! It seems like forever since I have had a chance to check out "Friends" here! I even missed out on the great new buttons that everyone else has.... but me...... I will be getting mine soon though...

It started with all the rain we had. I never had time to get online trying to work outside and then the rain took out our phone for about 3 or so weeks.

We have satellite internet from our next door neighbor and when the satellite was working her router was not. She had to finally get a new router. We do still have dial-up but of course, our phone was out.....

When our neighbor got the new router, it continued to rain and the satellite was not picking things up through the clouds. We could only get on once in a while for a short period of time......

We would sometimes take our laptops to the nearest city and use them, but then we only had time to catch up on all our business.....WHEW!

I missed you all!!!!! I am glad to be back! Yay! I hope to be able to stay for a while, kick my shoes off, and have fun!

I am glad to be back.........
