I Have A Harp

I have a harp. It is very out of tune. I've been spending the past hour or so alternative between tuning it and surfing the net. Tuning it is hard, for a few reasons:

1. I've never tuned a harp before.
2. I've never tuned any instruments before.
3. I have nothing to compare my strings to.

So, I'm tuning my harp via a combination of my kids glockenspiel and my knowledge of Do-Mi-Mi from Sound of Music. Stop laughing. I'm not funny.

However, even my out of tune harp sounds cool when I run my fingers over the strings. Which is a relief. Because I think it's going to be out of tune fore a while.
