I saw some snow on the NEXRAD over in that area the other night. Did you
see any falling? (It would have been early morning, 3-4AM ish.)

More reason to indicate the location of the course, n'est ce pas?

Hello Bill,
You're perfectly right. As an excuse I must say that I don't know the
location of the people on this forum.
I know the book you're mentionning but not its content. All the
interest of a one to one tuition is to listen, see and being
supervised. I don't know where you're from Bill, but book + Wood +
tools can all together become as expensive as a lovely trip + course
where everything is provided.
Anyway I understand your point. You can always ask us questions (we're
wife & husband) and we'll answer with pleasure.
Regards,
Pascal.

Mr. Pascal,
I was interested, but it would save peoples time if you mention that you
are referring to course having tuition which is in south-west France. I
was thinking of getting the somewhat pricey book on violin building by
Courtnall and Johnson and the price of a trip to France makes it look
cheap! How do you know Ms. Alexandra Apenberg? Maybe she could publish
a video for the Internet?

On the corner of 20th Street and Center Street Place. If you plug those
coordinates into Google maps and zoom way down, it'll point to my
keyboard...
...under the roof, of course. :)

Yes - there was about an inch accumulated on the balcony railing when I
looked out. I was glad to see it end because the trees here haven't
dropped their leaves yet. It was all melted by noon and the streets were
dry by mid-afternoon.
Usually this area doesn't see enough snow to measure until around
Thanksgiving.

Morris,
Try http://www.bing.com/maps with your long & lat. The bird's eye
view is spectacular. A GPS and internet maps are the "Ted Bundy" find
'em kit. Don't get anyone excited till the message thread cycles off
usenet. <big evil grin> Woops, Google is fixing the archive and it
will be around forever. At least the woodowrking groups are a lot more
civil than the gun control, animal rights, or other alt.talk groups.
