I never got around to thanking everyone for the warm welcome. It took me more than five years to realize what a great community this is. And that community means participation. Until recently, I've only been a passive observer. As I am about to retire, I hope to contribute more, including some audio of my playing (but don't hold your breath on that).

On another note, a Google search for dulcimer + fiddle led me to the following poem. Enjoy.
