Way to go Zurf!  Another song to sing while floating down the river fishing.  Looking forward to hearing it recorded.  Nice job!

I liked it!  Not for the pain that obviously caused it, but I love a story told through words and you hit the nail on the head.  Good Job!

Hey Ken; send it or bring it my way if you would.  I would be proud to look it over and add something to the mix.  This is a great, ongoing idea!

Wow, what a great time!  The bars on Broadway were just that; bars with good music, but overpriced beer.  The usual tourist things were done, sightseeing etc.  The General Jackson paddleboat was a very nice show and dinner cruise.  Probably my favorite was the time spent out on music row; didn't realize just how many publishers, recording studio's and music companies were located there.  Not just country music either.

I am still in awe of the tour through RCA Studio B where sooooo much quality hit music has been recorded through the years.  We were the last group of the day to go through there and there was nobody recording, so we actually got to go in the studio and control room.  How eerie to sit at the same piano where Elvis played and others from Jim Reeves to Charlie Pride to Garth Brooks recorded some of their hits.  Just standing where many famous artists stood to record their music was very inspiring.  I have some pictures; have to see how they turned out, but it was a great moment and I was moved by the experience.  Glad to be back home; but thought I would share my good time with all.

Thanks to all for your feedback!  I will give it a try next Thursday and see how it goes.  I was afraid that the one line with the play on words might offend some with the mere suggestion and the symbolism of rhyming with the word truck.   It is supposed to be fun and most will take it as that.  Good Luck on the fishing trip Ken!  I know those fellows will enjoy the picking around the fire at night.

Hey Dirty Ed; Ken  Yes, I have written my own song for our 6th birthday party and do intend to actually perform it that night.  Kind of a whimiscal little tune that I think is cute.  I also thought about another, but nothing done with it to date.  See you then; glad you are on here; good people, good supportive group.

Hey Amy; now that is exactly what I am talking about when I mention what I am doing with the guitar and why.  Nice story which rings true to my mission.  How fun to be able to share that special time with your Dad.  Mine has been gone almost 28 years and I would give an alwful lot to be able to do what you just did.  And, as your dad said to you, don't for one minute think that this event isn't something he is cherishing as a special moment in his life.  Daughters always occupy a soft spot in Daddy's heart and this probably made it more so.  Keep it up and ENJOY!

Hey Wayne:  Way to show off the new addition with a great cover of an old classic.  I like it!  Guitar sounds good too!  I am envious of all your stuff!

If you ever see me running it is because somebody is shooting at me!  I am lucky to get out of the golf cart or my fishing boat, let alone run.  Good Luck, hope you fare well for all of us whose only runs these days are on my guitar; and I am not very good at that, but I keep trying.  Lots of Luck

Ok Amy!  This is much more bouncy than I thought it would be.  I really thought this would be more of a very slow ballad, so I was very suprised.  Good lighthearted melody puts a very casual and carefree tone on the underlying message of moving forward with our lives from meeting to kids and all that life brings.  I really like hearing new things that others do.  Nice job playing, singing and the lyrics.  Keep it up.

Thanks for the feedback everybody.  Amy, thanks, because that is really all I am striving for; the ability to sit around with friends and do songs that others will appreciate; maybe even sing along to.  I am more of a "cold beer" or a little "Crown Royal" over ice type of guy, but the sentiment is still the same.  Thanks all!
