I so agree. It can get cool and foggy in the summer evenings where I live but it tends to keep the mosquitoes away. Nature and music - definitely a great healing for mind, body and soul.

Best,

11pm at night, not a creature was stirring. Sat outside in the still night air and played this without a guitar care in the world. It was really enjoyable and it reminded me I got just as much thorough enjoyment time from this very inexpensive guitar as I do when I play my "main" guitar which is about 7-8 times the cost.

Simple pleasures
As the song says...

Music makes pictures, and often tells stories
All of it magic, and all of it true

And all of the pictures, and all of the stories
And all of the magic, the music is you...
John Denver

No better feeling in the world, than being outside with a favorite guitar in a lovely and quiet place...

duff
Be A Player...Not A Polisher
