Why Blend in with the Crowd ? When you were made to stand out !

Re: "Beaver Creek"

Hi Old Doll.  Actually, there is no town Beaver Creek.  There is a creek with running water name Beaver Creek.  It is east of the towns me and my friends grew up in.  Which was Hennessey and Kingfisher Oklahoma.  The stickers are called: Sticker Burrs.  They grow wild just about anywhere.  They are round and about the size of a pencil eracer.  If you step on one they stick into your foot.  They are a little hard to pull out and when you do it hurts a lot.  My best friend Tommy passed away last year.  I miss my friend and growin up near Beaver Creek.    tears     Have a good day.  Jody

Re: "Beaver Creek"

Hey Jody, that was great.  Do you just use the computer video monitor to do this?  And what software do you use to record it?  I'd like to start putting some of mine up like that some day.

You can see all my video covers on [url]http://www.youtube.com/bensonp1000[/url]
I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.

Re: "Beaver Creek"

Hi benson,  I use a sony camcorder on a tripod.  It takes the video and records.  Then I transfer the video from the camcorder to my computer.  Then I upload the file to youtube/myspace.  They have small recorders and cameras that you can set right on your desk and hook up to your computer to record.  At least that is what my grandkids told me??  It's a pain getting started, but it gets easier quickly and becomes more fun.  I hope you do start recording, I would like to hear your songs.
Take care,jodyWayne
