Florida Gulf Coast Dulcimer Retreat

I just got back from the Florida Gulf Coast Dulcimer Retreat. The festival featured Guy George, Sharrie George, and of course, Bing Futch.

Setup with Bing and Guy

We managed to get 24 standard dulcimers into the van, along with 4 resonator dulcimers, 6 travel dulcimers, 1 double neck dulcimer, 3 chromatic dulcimers, 4 baritone dulcimers, 4 hammered dulcimers, and (of course) my personal dulcimer. Oh, yes, and 2 psalteries and 11 ukuleles. And 2 dulcileles. And an amplifier, 48 t-shirts, all kinds of Herdim picks, straps, buttons, books (both Seifert and Ross), DVDs, and other necessities for a dulcimer festival.

Hope to see everyone again next year!
