Kathleen GreshamWhat a thoughtful blog. I wish I'd had a teacher like you when I took up guitar years ago. I just bought a book and learned some chords, played for a year or so, then left the guitar t home when I went off to college. I still have it, and it still sounds good when someone else plays it. So I wasn't sure what I would get from your blog, but I couldn't stop reading. Lovely.
