This woman is so spiritual and full of respect for nature. She's like a violin shaman, watch the video it's worth it and at 5 min you get to see something I never though was part of violin making!

I know the same felling what she is talking about with the trees. She puts all her intent into her violin making and I get a good vibe from her. smile

More information on her right here. http://orgs.usd.edu/nmm/Archiv.....amily.html

I should have said "was" because she died at a venerable age of 98 years old!

Very, very interesting Lady with passion. Thanks so much for that post NV. I saved that link you gave to read up more about her. I loved the way she could pick up that axe and cut that wood at her age. My grandmother just died at the ripe old age of 109 at the end of this last Feb. She taught me a lot about music and many things about life. I've been kind of angry ever since cause I miss her so much. Thanks again NV I have a couple tears coming out of my eyes right now ;-) Love her comment about a flowing river too! Sounds like a couple lyrics I wrote, "I've been through the river ya I been through the lake".
