Hello Mike ! Just wondered if I could pick your brains re Uncle Ed ! Have you any knowledge of the number of 'teardrop' instruments he may have made. Have only just picked up on the fact that the well publicised picture of him with hat on sat with a dulcimer on his lap shows a teardrop leaning against the adjacent ladderback chair ?
I trust all is going well for in preparation for the event of the year !
Hello Mike ! This to apologise for not pickin up on your FB comment earier !It was 0500 a. m. here , I act as 'nurse' for my wife, and was up with her at that time for a bathroom visit, I usually sit and flick thro' things while I wait, but can't afford to get involved, if you see what I mean ?
Yes, I would love to be there, this nursing housewifey thing is pretty durned wearing . I think I may have remarked before, a couple of weeks standing by you in the workshop would do me the world of good just now, I think our sense of humour might well be a match, lol ! !
Hi Mike, and welcome to the wonderful world of the Friends of the Mountain Dulcimer. It's a good place to come, spend some time, learn and exchange ideas about the dulcimer, and to meet some good people.
We miss you Brother.
John,
You through me for a loop, because I have never heard that he made teardrops. Would it be this image?

If so, look more closely. The upper bout is a bit indistinct, but those hearts are there.
Things are moving right along for the Homecoming.

Hi Mike, Thanks for the offer to be friends. You have got some interesting photos posted.
Thanks for the warm welcome. I have been lurking for a while and sort of feel like I know some of you already.
