H2O Man

I used to play guitar. (My biggest "event" was playing with friend David Peel, many years ago, at a Woodstock reunion.)

When my older daughter was about 12, she asked if she could play my guitar? Sure. Within the afternoon, she taught herself to play her favorite Bob Marley song. Thus, my guitar became her guitar. Three of my four children are musically gifted, and the girls have been playing a bit this summer.

My biggest contribution would be writing lyrics. I've done that for a few area groups over the decades.
