opened up my violin case tonight for the first time in about a year. sadly, half of the hairs on my bow have snapped, so here's hoping it'll last through the summer so i can just invest in a new bow and new strings all at the same time come August.
i forgotten how much i love the smell of my violin. i know that seems weird, but there is something about the smell of the wood, the rosin, and the fabric of the case all rolled into one that just brings back so many memories.
i went to an irish fiddle camp one summer. hippies, the mountains, laughing yoga, singing, morning and evening jam sessions...what a week. can't til my fingers can once again fly across the strings as i play a reel or a jig.
