Nathaniel jams with Bradley Ellis, with Bradley on the washtub bass and Nathaniel playing a McSpadden Ginger from Joe Collins' booth. Bradley and Nathaniel are roughly the same age, and both have been playing dulcimers for about 2 1/2 years. Nathaniel looks forward to seeing Bradley at many future festivals.It's hard to believe that the North Georgia Foothills Dulcimer Association Fall Festival is almost over already. Nevertheless, it is. Today involves one morning class hour, the annual Gathering of Instruments and farewells to dulcimer friends new and old. Nathaniel and his dad always conclude the festival with a Joe Collins-led Bible Study, which has a Sunday School sort of a character.
Yesterday actually included a mix for Nathaniel. He performed on the Open Stage at Unicoi and he and his dad stayed for the evening concert and a bit of jamming. However, he spent most of the day in the gallery of local artist John Kollock, where he played solo dulcimer music while Mr. Kollock and Nathaniel's sister, Sarah, displayed their artwork.
