It is a bitter sweet summer; normally at this time we would be printing off final registration lists and packing the truck full of fiddles and gear, about to head to fiddle camp.  With the instability of Covid-19 it seemed safest to postpone fiddle camp for this year. Instead of heading to fiddle camp, I am weeding my garden, collecting eggs from the chickens and packing my truck with camping gear as the family heads out to the lake.  I can't wait for the jubilant celebrations when we can all make music together, but I am deeply grateful for the inward time of this season. 

I have played and written a lot more music this year, and stumbled upon precious though unintended discoveries as a result of slowing down: new artists and their music, a favourite new recipe, the wild berries growing in our forest, letters I started but never sent to people who are gone now, and why have I not discovered mountain biking earlier in life? I have reflected a great deal on the purpose of all the busyness we keep ourselves occupied with, and which things are worth holding on to or letting go of.  I'm sure you've all had these revelations too.

I've decided the community that Fiddleworks has become over these decades is one of those things I want to hold onto.  The camps, the connections, the learning and sharing.  In the coming days, I'm excited to breathe my creative energy into Fiddleworks, and to share with you the vision and opportunities for everyone to reconnect online and in person.  ​
