   Hello Spring time! It's the beginning of May and my new garden is almost finished. The grass is growing and things are in full swing. I love it!

I just started out the festival season last week by going to one of my favorite festivals at the Riverside Inn. I think it was a huge success this year. The music was good and I had a very good attendance at my workshop for bending sides. To see some pics go to my web site ( http://www.wood-n-strings.net/ ) and look around. Make sure you put this music festival on your calender for next year. You will be glad you did.

This month is going to be another very busy time for me . I will be participating in another fun filled music fest called the BlueSky Folk Festival in Kirtland on May 19^th. (http://www.blueskyfolkfest.com/ I will be setting up a booth to show the patrons of the festival about the types of repairs and the instruments that I build. I will also be demonstrating a workshop on general maintanence and showing some techniques of some of the common repairs that are done at Wood-n-Strings.

There will be two stages packed with great musical entertainment . A lot of fun things for the kids to participate in and a good variety of food to tease your pallette with. A gauranteed Good Time!
