Hi Jandle it is wonderful to see you back posting on chordie again.

Hi Jandl, I second that emotion. Welcome back, it would be good to have you keep those other kiwi's in order.

Shreveport is closest but  Dallas would be good ya,ll drive down together plenty room here at the house , 2 great lakes 20 minutes from the house. or i have a camper we take to Sam Rayburn either way be fun

If I wanted to get there, it's looking like the easiest way would be to fly to Shreveport and then drive over.  Is that right? Or have you got a closer airport? 

I think BGD is around Dallas/Fort Worth. Maybe it would be easier to fly to him and we'd drive down together. This is cool. We're going to have to think about it.

Have you got space to put us up, or are we going to need to rent a cabin or an AirBnB (this is not a trick question)?

I'm heading to Florida in March some time to pick guitars and hassle fish, so another trip isn't likely this year, but if it is, it would likely be the fall. Is that a good time?

Thanks. BaldGuitarDude is down in Texas and a fisherman too. He's not active here, but he was a member and I'm still in touch with him (he's gotten to be one of my best buddies, actually). We ought to try to make this a thing. I think we'd all enjoy ourselves. You could challenge us with a couple of your songs printed out and we'd each give it a go without having actually heard the song before. Then you could show us how it's done. It would be a blast.     

That you're both in Texas is kind of like saying you both live in Spain (Spain is actually smaller than Texas in terms of square miles), and so it must be easy, but you know. There's planes and stuff.

thats awesome,  ive been retarded ( thats the past tense of retired so the wife says) for two years now.  thats some good advice from Phill, ask me how i know. dear old dad is not working anymore he can watch the kids a couple of days. babysitting gets in the way of doing nothing that day.  any way enjoy the new life.     

now them some true words , it takes a lot to love a good woman but nothing to let her go

and sit with me by the fireplace at night and kick off his boots

I further edited this duet changed a few words and chords.

But sorry Phill - I only made a minor  change in that line
It is definitely written as a country song and I think it fits.
Maybe our Texas friend Mojo can give some input as to that line.

Thanks for checking it out .
