The Gift of Music


Over the years I have loved listening to the hammered dulcimer - its mellow tones, the way the notes linger after the hammer strikes.  And I confess that I've envied those who own this instrument and know the secret to playing it.  So imagine my elation when a friend said, "I have a dulcimer and I want you to have it.  I can't play it any longer and want someone to enjoy it."

Enjoy it I do!  I've had this beauty for less than 24 hours and have loved making its acquaintance.  I love listening to the beautiful sounds it makes - even when I hit wrong notes.  What an amazing gift!  Lee Ann, thank you, thank you, thank you.
