Final noodle 🍜 on my first guitar 🎸
🕑 Added 2019-12-08 15:43:53 +0000 UTCThis is the first dreadnought guitar I got when I was 13 years old. My dad, Ed, picked it up from a buddy named “Dulcimer Dan” who sold second hand and repaired instruments at the Kerville Folk Fest. Ed and Dan used to play music together as the Crestone Mountain String Band and recorded an album called “Its So Good.” The title track is a song my Dad wrote for my Mom. When he passed away, Morgan and I played “Its So Good” at his funeral. We’ve also played this song, and this guitar, for weddings of family and friends. I wrote my first song on this guitar too. Needless to say this instrument had a lot of memories.
Today, I’m going to give this guitar to a teen student of mine who wants to learn to play. We want to pass on the love of music and access to instruments that we had growing up. This is just one of many instruments we are giving to young people we know who have a passion for music. We want to share our love of music with everyone! We were given several instruments growing up so it feels great to return the gesture....universally speaking 😁

Thanks so much Sheri! I remember making that video was so much fun and it was such a pleasure to be a part of your wedding. It was a wonderful time and we will always be able to watch the YouTube video to reminisce 🥰

I love that song and it meant so much to us when you played it for our wedding, as did the video you made for us, “ Mince Meat and a Wedding” . That was a magical day/ weekend for us and young Morgan were a huge part of that. You still are!
