Best summer of my life was spent at Augusta in the five-week instrument-making program, in 1979. Extraordinary value--tuition was $300 plus materials costs for two quality instruments both of which I still have 20 years later. (Hammered dulcimer and banjo). Don't know if it still is, at the time all beer in WV was 3.2 percent--so we could and did party and jam late every night--and then be running a bandsaw at 8 a.m. next morning without hands shaking...(OK maybe 8:30)

Never made the time to go back, more's the pity...
