Red Hill Dulcimer Festival



Alan, Aaron and I drove to Salem, Illinois Friday evening and spent the night at Jeanette and Jason's. It gave us an opportunity to see their new home. Why I didn't think to take any pictures while we were there I don't know. It is a very nice house though. They have painted all the rooms and it looks great. They also have a large backyard that is fenced in. That is sure a big plus when you have a dog.

The next morning Alan and I drove on over to Sumner, Illinois to attend the Red Hill Dulcimer Festival. It's only the third year for their festival, but it was very well organized. We especially enjoyed classes given by Tull Glazener from Indianapolis, In. He's a very nice guy and an excellent teacher. During lunch we were entertained by a blue grass band called Bales of Hay. They were surprisingly talented. We missed the concert following the classes, as we needed to get on the road and get back to Edwardsville for Dustan's Eagle presentation.

I knew you would post a blog after you got home. It was good to have you all here even if it was such a short time.
