          That’s awesome Jane!  Nice you got the traveler out.  I just purchased a backyard dulcimer. I will post a pic.  Mine is not painted.  I am trying to decide how to decorate it.

          Where are you camping?

              lucky girl!  that will be fun.     just got invited by a bunch of high school friends to go to a bluegrass festival in Mt View AR in November.  That is where The Dulcimer Shoppe is located.  can’t wait to go there.

                  Yes, I was there right after the ARKANSAS festival and got mine there.  Today I was at a shop in Nashville, INDIANA, someone was asking about dulcimer lessons. I of course told her about Banjolemonade.com. Then in the window was a picture of Mandy advertising free lessons with purchase of Merlin. My husband points and says, “and there she is”.  The salesperson wasn’t aware of all the types of instruments Mandy teaches. NOW she does. 😄

                      HAHAHA that is hilarious Jane!!  That is the ONLY place in this entire country that I have that going with.  What a small world. HAHAHA. – There is no other music shop anywhere that I know of that I have that with other than my local shop here and there’s no picture of me there either.  HAHAHAH – Jon and I are laughing.  The fact that your husband saw it too, that’s what’s funny.

                              Glad I’m not the only one that can’t resist new instrument purchases. 😇

                               

                              That said we need pictures and/or videos of said dulcimer 😁

                                      I can neither confirm nor deny the truthfulness of these rumors 😎😂🤣🤣

                                      Okay Jason, here is picture of new dulcimer. I contained myself to just one, seriously.  But live to shop another day 🙄.  Bill Arnold Student, and it is easy to play I must admit.  The change down to 25VSL is actually nice, kind of wish I knew that before. The grain is cute and knot hole sound hole is really cute. 3 strings, DAD, nice tone.  I wanted something simple to have DAD tuning. And it is

                                    Very neat Jane!  I like the holes.  And that homemade strap.  Love it.  Yes I played for YEARS before even realizing about VSL.  It’s such a big thing for me too.  I probably couldn’t hardly play a 27 or larger now after having my 25”s.
