Today I'm at the Old Bowie Festival in the North of Bowie, MD. Stop by if you're in the area! 11am to 5 pm

Has your weather started cooling off, yet. Here's "Cold Frosty Morning" on one of my Lap-Harps, or Zither. If you'd like to special order one, I'm selling them for $50. Let me know!

I've got 5 Lap-harps or Zithers for sale at the Art Market. This is what "Over the Waterfall" sounds like.

I couldn't find any plans for my Zithers, so I bought some of Debbie Center's music and built my Zither to fit her music. Check out her music at Debbie Center, World of Harmony.

This song is: "The Flop Eared Mule"
