Story behind the song
I played folk guitar from about 1978-1984. Then I essentially stopped playing until the 2001 Aloha Music Camp and didn't really start playing again until around February 2002, with encouragement from Ozzie Kotani and Moana Beamer. I selected this song at the request of my wife, who re-introduced me to guitar and to slack key by signing me up for the Aloha Music Camp (as a Christmas present). Tuning: Taro Patch
