Hey @Jenny O'Connor well my local Luthier thinks my student violin needs the nut adjusted because its too low and thats why my E string sounds a little like a "sitar". Basically the string is actually touching the fingerboard quite a bit, So next friday its going in for some work that, and the bridge is actually bent a little forward and probably needs to be replaced. But he said its okay for now. So my baby girl has surgery Friday which means I will have to practice with my backup violin... Lord help me on that.

I'm still getting the hang of this Skool thing. So... here is the sheet music! For real this time! It says I can attach multiple things, but for some reason when I did that it bumped off the other two. I'm going to try again to also add the screenshot of me trying to find some far fetched way to connect this to the Holiday season, because I refuse to make a dedicate post just for all to see me getting completely shut down by AI. 🤞😂

New Gear? - well I did get a new bow ...
Well, I bought this here new bow yesterday. Its a samuel eastman BL50. Just a tiny step up perhaps from the bow which came with my student rental violin (which I have since bought of course. I like it, it really handles well. Total impulse buy but one that I am happy with.

Northern Lights in my garden 🙂
Nothing to do with violins, but this just happened in my back yard, so I thought I would share it with you guys. You could actually see it with your own eyes and without a camera 😊 ( most of the time you can only see it through a lens) Just a quick edit for those who want to visit and see this :- In the summer months here, it doesn’t get dark until at least 2am in the morning ( even then it is lights due to the sun rising at 4am) So no good for the aurora viewing

Well, I wear many hats: husband, father, grandfather, CPA, veteran, historian, entrepreneur, and sometimes .... a violin student ;)
