Ask Don if he had a brother named Tom. Don(Wayne) is my husbands uncle. The world's getting smaller. :-P

Too bad you don't have a mentor. Keep at it if you love it. My husband has played for years, and he still plays every single day. He even took his fiddle to the hospital when he had prostate surgery!! He also played 2 days after he broke his wrist and had a cast on. He is really dedicated. He has a Youtube video under Southbound Mule.com for "Wild Bill Jones"

In '05 I started taking fiddle lessons from a young girl in Wilson. I took for about 2 mo. and fell and broke my wrist. So the lessons stopped for about a year. I tried for awhile then gave up. My wrist doesn't work quite right. But lately I've wanted to try again. We have a small church and several play instruments but no fiddle. Would love to know how to play with the "bunch" for the Lord.

I emailed Don and ask about his brothers name and if his middle name was Wayne. They had their grass mowed today so they might be coming down here this weekend. I don't know.

Everything fits. If it's not we'd be surprised. :)

That would be fun. Hey did you know a girl by the name of Kristi Tarwater? I believe her husbands name was Bobby. She moved from Ringling about 3 or so years ago. She worked for me in Ardmore.
