<description><![CDATA[ Portland was a wonderful weekend. Tons of people playing tons of tunes, a visit to David Kerr's violin shop in the rain (wonderful people there) and an over-the-top dinner on Saturday night/Sunday morning at the Gilt Club that changed my understanding of cuisine. 
Ela (a Strad model) found a new home in Berkeley in the same house that Rosalie (a D'Egville model) lives in.  &nbsp;<a href="http://www.dougyule.com/journal/home-from-the-dance.html">[&#8230;read more]</a>]]></description>

Heading down to&nbsp; the Old Time Gathering in Portland this weekend to play  some music and visit violin shops. Traveling with at least four and  maybe five violins so if you're in Portland and want to play one, look  for the fiddler with too many cases. If you go to the gallery of  available instruments you can see the one's I'll be carrying: Novinha,  Quara, and Ela, as well as the two &nbsp;<a href="http://www.dougyule.com/journal/portland-old-time-gathering.html">[&#8230;read more]</a>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Spring has been slow in arriving in spite of several nice days. The second Filius is in the tanning booth, a Sanctus Seraphin model is on the bench and a Testore model&nbsp; with the lightest back I've ever made is almost ready to close. A second trip to Italy was initiated this week and should happen in mid September. This will give me an opportunity to revisit the filius in Cremona as well as th &nbsp;<a href="http://www.dougyule.com/journal/spring-is-threatening.html">[&#8230;read more]</a>]]></description>

When Dan, my youngest son, and I visited Cremona this past summer, we both fell in love with a violin by Giuseppe Guarnarius filius Andreae and decided to make an instrument based on it. Here, at last, is Chiara. The original, made by the father of Guarnarius Del Gesu, shows a strong connection to the style of the Amati family. The fittings are of figured Myrtle.  &nbsp;<a href="http://www.dougyule.com/journal/brought-home-from-cremona.html">[&#8230;read more]</a>]]></description>
