Although originally trained as a keyboardist, my "second instrument" was the Celtic harp. I performed in many different venues, including dinner parties at the Governor's Mansion in Olympia WA, and mostly played my own compositions. One of them supplied the title for this image. To quote a feature article in the Daily Olympian, "Watching her play, it is easy to get the idea she is as delicate as the music. It's important to recall that her other job is as a ranger at Mt. Rainier National Park." Yep, that was me they were talking about.

It's been twenty-plus years since I gave a public performance. I am so rusty now that I'd probably have trouble picking out a simple tune. But it wouldn't take long before the Harper's Hands remembered the positions so long practiced, I'm sure. Maybe now that I've dragged one harp out of the closet, I should sit down and make music once again.

As always, I ask that you please refrain from posting graphics in your comments. Thanks.
