Oh, boy, that's really the end of an era.

I'll have to get out the dulcimer and do a few songs like Barbry Allen and John Hardy.

Tell us something.: I'm a fiddler and, latterly, a fluter. I love the flute. I wish I'd always played it. I love the whistle as well. I'm blessed in having really lovely instruments for all of my musical interests.
