I tried to share an image from my phone, and I don't have the app to do it. I'll come back and do it later.
(impressive/distinctive eyebrows on yet another handsome face)

... a long deceased cellist/music director who was a mentor of mine beginning around age 15 or so... probably pushed an audition committee to award me a scholarship to Interlochen, even though maybe I wasn't the strongest applicant (??)

As an adult - whereby I'm slipped into becoming more of a colleague, I would tell him some horribly filthy jokes at gig breaks, he would laugh hysterically, and then would drag me over and force me to tell them to his gorgeous wife. That cured me.

New to me Besson 995, the day I brought it home (last month).

Tomorrow I should be picking it up from getting cleaned, polished and some minor fixes.
