Hi All,
Took a trip from my home in Virginia to San Diego, home of my son, his wife and my two Grandboys. Decided to place my hard cased fiddle on the plane as baggage. I “think” I could have carried it under the seat as a “carry-on”, but I decided against that. All worked out well! I was away 8 days, and I played pretty much each day, usually with the assistance of two boys! I let them handle the bow each day and they loved it. I worked on “Pretty Little Dog.” It took me all week to get the song in my head and be able to play up to speed. It is in A Dorian scale and very pretty, as it transitions octaves within same melody. Hope everyone is doing OK out there, and having fun fiddling!
