Subject: RE: NEFFA 02, anyone?
By my tastes the food was a bit pricey for less than average fare, but then other years, when I'm more on the ball I've just pack a cooler full of food & liquids. So shame on me. The music was excellent. Had lots of trouble choosing workshops, so I split most in half, didn't want to miss a thing. My daughter (14) asked to come along Saturday with a girlfriend & both liked the dancing, much to my suprise. My son came Sunday & wanted to check out workshops that had anything to do with the fiddle, he's just starting on one. Caught a few people. Lamarca & hubby are always a treat. Aside from them being very healthy for my ears, their choice of material is just as great. Both came to help me out (my partner got pulled away for a work emergency) at my workshop along with Bonnie & Dan Milner. I didn't catch the Milner's elsewhere so it was twice the pleasure, always a stand out job from both. Thank you, the 4 of you, for a hand & voice well lent. Caught the first half of Kathy Westra, she's always one who's not to be missed. Shipping News (one of them is usually lurking about here) was so right on the spot that I fogot to go to half of another workshop that I intended to make. Well maybe next year will be a bigger family affair. It's late for me after still trying to catch up on my beauty nap. I'm dead possitive I'm leaving out quite a bit. Good Night. Barry
