Oooh, lovinmybags, we have classical music in common. What instruments do you play?

I played flute for many years but wasn't very good at it. My true obsession is the violin, even though I can't play it. I have been known to fly to foreign countries to hear my favorite violinists perform. I'm like a deadhead!

And jburgh, I like snakes and spiders, too. My husband always calls me to come catch bugs & put them outside.
