In Case You Missed It...

Greetings.  Welcome to the September newsletter.  I can't believe it's almost October!

Anyway, August was a great month.  I got some fabulous exercise and got back in touch with nature up in the North Woods of Wisconsin.  A little kayaking, hiking, biking -- and hammered dulcimer playing out in the woods!  It was a blast, although the mosquitoes were really bad this year.  See below :-)

In other news I am down to only 24 CDs left!  Wow.  I started out with 1,100 so I am very grateful for all the support.

Our show at the SPACE in Evanston, IL last month was fantastic.  We had an amazing crowd and it was exciting to have pianist Rob Clearfield with us.
