This summer I performed for a wedding of a dear friend's daughter, and my part in the ceremony was instrumental music as the wedding party came down the aisle.  Pretty cool!  I decided to try out the autoharp....a much loved but underused instrument I've had for years ~ and got as a gift from a very special friend.  I dusted it off, then took it in to the famous Hogeye Music and had it restrung and adjusted, then went to work on the wedding music.  As I got used to the new muscle patterns needed for pushing buttons while strumming in a standing position, my "inner autoharp" emerged from a long sleep, and I got to love it.  Next time you see me, just ask for my autoharp rendition of Pachebel's Canon.......!
