and then the heavy rain came............

we were dry as a bone for weeks - really needed rain - now we are gonna get a lot - too bad it wasn't just consistently spread out over a couple weeks

Hoping that we have no flooding

Zurf - cool guitar

Is Bass easier to play than a regular  guitar ?
I have no idea - I have never even held a Bass guitar.

I too, was looking for a huge fish you might have caught or a fishing song...

When it says "chorus" - what exactly does that mean ?
I am assuming it's not back up singers !  

Jim

way above me.  I have trouble just playing an f chord  :0

Cool info though.

Looks and sounds  like a great piece of equipment !

I have no clue how to use one - but I'm sure it is really cool.

This is why I wish I lived near you guys - so I could hang out and see what you musicians really do.  Watching video and reading just doesn't make it for me.

Congrats Phill

I think I was in 11th grade when I first heard King Crimson.
I bought the album without even knowing what they sounded like, but I thought the album cover was cool - its the own you've got the pic of.

They are a classic - real cool stuff.
This is the music I play when i am doing something like wood work or tinkering in my barn.

Thanks for the share TF

Thank You  Amy, Jan and TF

I actually did write it without music first - I used those chords b/c that's about the full scope of my abilities

Wish I had musical talent to go with writing 

I have it my songbook here if anyone wants to use it... easier to transpose if necessary

Thanks again !

I liked that a lot - just floats me away to imagining nice places. My first thoughts were, a scene watching my grandchildren play in the yard, secondly, a graduation ceremony, and lastly - I pictured in my mind a photographer going around videotaping the wedding party prior to the wedding. 
It was very well done.

Zurf
Also enjoyed your track - I thought the guitar work was excellent.   

Thanks to both of you  for sharing

I tried to use audacity - it was way too complicated for my small mind. 

Phill and Peatle

Thank you for your extremely kind words. I really don't see myself as anything more than what you said Phill,  I just wrote what I saw.  Being a teacher and coach  of almost 40 years, I'm pretty good at reading people. { and I really do love that phrase "say what you see" Phill }- in this case it was that exactly.
My only regret was not somehow taking a photograph of her. 
It has a mystery about it as well, because I will never know what the real story was. ( although her expression and her  being alone certainly had an unmistakable agony about it)

I put it to the chords as you see in the post b/c they are the most comfortable chords for me - but since then have transposed it to D G A bc it fits my singing (if that's what one would call it   ) better.
I think it has potential to be a really good song. 
( and the funny thing Phill,  which you will probably get a kick out of I think was that when I was changing it from poem to song...... I kept thinking - " I need to put a bridge in it "   like Phill said -     but I still have no clue how to do something like that even though you explained it wonderfully, so it sits bridgeless   )

Peatle,
It must have been a soul wrenching job working with and counseling young people as such.  I can only imagine the highs and lows of such a job (between  those you were able to save and those you couldn't help)

Thanks again for you flattering comments

Jim
