I love all of this! There are a few people with whom I share handwritten correspondence, and it’s with the understanding that nothing is time-sensitive. (That said, one friend wrote, “I can’t believe I didn’t tell you that I got married last year!”)

One of the things I appreciate about your newsletters is that one doesn’t have to be a fiddler to enjoy and appreciate them… just insatiable curiosity. 😊

I’m really glad you got a shoulder-rest, “stupidly expensive” as it was.

Warm wishes to you! I look forward to the time I can hear your fiddling again in person.

Hey Rayna,

It’s Erik Reece here from back in the day. I love your old postcard! And I love.Swordfishtrombones! I’ve been trying to paint some watercolor postcards on my fly fishing trips to send to friends. It’s fun just to send art out into the world like that and never see it again but hope it finds someone who will get a kick out of it.

Erik Reece!!! Hey! And heck yes to sending art to friends (& loving Swordfishtrombones 🤘)… it’s always a good idea. 🥰
