I'm looking forward to YouTube vids of you singing and playing, just like Annie (The Transplantable Rose) does on her piano. ;-) Just kidding, but I do hope you'll get a great kick out of playing your guitar in the garden or somewhere else.<BR/><BR/>BTW Ice Queen on an acoustic guitar?

I finally developed some callouses by the time the session ended. I've forgotten all the chords now, but I'm determined, too, to take lessons this fall.<BR/>Keep it up!Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20831949.post-2792378165734456842008-07-02T17:56:00.000-03:002008-07-02T17:56:00.000-03:00I can't wait for that embedded podcast of the gard...I can't wait for that embedded podcast of the garden with the sounds of music in the garden from 'Skittles' and your talented fingers!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20831949.post-11441326474390323472008-07-02T17:06:00.000-03:002008-07-02T17:06:00.000-03:00It is so alright to do for ourselves once in a whi...It is so alright to do for ourselves once in a while.

I should get the fingers going again.

This is so special today as I though have been on the music committee at my church now for starting the 9th year, I hadn't sung a solo in almost 7 years. I do a lot of other things but singing I had stopped doing, but when I could not find anyone to sing this upcoming Sabbath morn' I decided to sing again.

I am just a strummer and I have never been able to play bar chords. Oh well. It is the escape of playing that is so refreshing. Sort of like getting into a painting.

When my husband decided to take lessons, a very wise salesman here pointed him in that direction. I am buy no means an expert, but the Seagulls seem to have a very rich tone that many instruments in the price range we were looking at lack. I can't imagine a more perfect spot to practice than in the garden. <BR/><BR/>Enjoy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20831949.post-29748005254676136722008-07-02T01:11:00.000-03:002008-07-02T01:11:00.000-03:00Good for you, Jodi!
