Very nice! I played it several times.

What Breedlove are you playing?

Thanks dragonfly66! I appreciate it.

That is my C20 Masterclass, Spuce/EIR. It is a custom that was made at the Tumalo location, before they moved to Bend.

Really nice piece. Reminds me a walk on a warm summer day. That guitar does sound nice.

Thanks rickwaugh and Ranger!

Rick-that is open D tuning (DADF#AD) I dont often use open tunings, and I was actually trying to learn a different piece, and this tune just fell under my fingers.

Ranger- It was actually inspired by a walk on a warm summer day! And the low flying butterfly that cut right in front of me during the walk. So I guess it came across as intended.

Thanks again for the kind words.

That was nice. May low flying butterflies cross your path more often. They seem to be inspiring.

Thanks to all for the kind words. I appreciate you all taking the time to listen and comment!

rick-slo - Thanks for the response on the title. The originals I compose generally have a basis for the title, (What I'm tinking about, or inspired by when writing the tune) but it is really nice when the title can be related to by the listener.

Very pretty song and great playing. I love the little slides you do, the melody is kind of old fashoned sounding, but the song has a modern feel. Very nice things in it, loved listening.
