I just wanted to drop a line and say THANK YOU to Mica and Val et all for their warm welcome.  I was able to swing in to say a quick hello in my travels in the San Fran area.  Even on a last couple of days notice they were there to welcome me.  I was like a kid in a candy store!!!!
Susan, I'm sorry I missed you this time.  I hope to get back sometime soon.  I fell in love with the area!!!!
Flax, Man are you in for a suprise!!!!!!  What a beautiful instrument
 
Peace,
Dino

Hey Dean!!!!  
 
I hope this means that a third instrument is in the making  With the Cocobolo special this month it would be an ideal time to set aside some woods, ya know?!?!  
 
hope all is well,
-Mike

Hey Mike,
 
Great to hear from ya.  Are you still down in CT?  Man, after buying a new house and a new bike, I might have to wait a bit.  I'm still thinking on doing something crazy though.
 
Peace,
Dino
