Thanks to everyone who came to our Jacksonville concert in May. It was
great fun and we enjoyed meeting everyone. And thanks to Bruce Ford and
his wonderful family for hosting us and the River City dulcimer group for
playing warm up. The whole evening was very special and we hope to return
next year.

Thanks to everyone who attended my banjo class in February at the Campbell
School. Boy were you ever a group of musical geniuses and it was great fun
too. :) Bob is already preparing his fresh roasted and ground coffee for
the next class in July 2008. He has been experimenting with some Brazilian
that is awesome. :)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to everyone who came to my classes at the Suwannee Banjo Camp in
March. I enjoyed being with many old and new friends and it sure was fun.
Lots of musical geniuses there too!
