We live in Tennessee. My father (85 y.o.) plays Bluegrass style music, or fiddle style. But the only difference is the style of playing, a fiddle and a violin are the same instrument. My father also repairs violins. He has met several classical players (including a violin teacher) this way. When they try his violins they are very impressed by the quality. He has made 9 violins and is currently building another.

This is not my "second childhood". I'm not finished with the first one yet.
