Remember the rings you engraved for one of my flutes many years ago, and hand delivered on your motor bike ride to Mendocino? How many years ago was that, anyhow?
Well, the flute just finished getting played in an orchestra tour, and I had it back in the workshop for a check up. I will post you a photo for old times sake tomorrow. You were so kind and open in encouraging me to get my toe in the water of engraving, and I will always appreciate that. Wish I could take more time to engrave, but I am too busy making flutes for the US Army. Kind of ironic? A flute maker supplying the country's biggest gun user! Please Mr President, don't cut the budget, at least till I get paid for the Fife and Drum Corps flutes!
Oops, am I getting political here, or just plain selfish? Just kiddin'
