Hey Jim... yes, I only use finger picking or finger strumming. You may have noticed that in this song I even use my first finger as a noter! Well, sometimes I move one finger down the frets, and other times I do random fingering to move down the frets, but you know what I mean. Every now and then I use a pick to strum... I make sure to use one that has grooves that help me keep the grip.

Thanks for stopping by! 

Mary;

Very beautiful!

Do you use finger picking method exclusively?

I have been gravitating to almost all finger picking style, since picks slip out of my fingers

and I can play faster by finger picking.

Hey Terry, thanks so much!

Mary, that was very nice.

Hey Rob, thanks. Back and writing and back, yeah, thanks.

Thank you Helen! I recently realized that the rhyming is off a bit in the beginning, but I think I'm going to leave it that way. Thanks about my fingerpicking - I've been trying to learn some more complicated pieces but it turns out they hurt the arthritis in my left hand, so glad you like it cuz I think I'm stuck with what I can already do! Thanks for stopping by.

Oh Steven, thanks so much for stopping by!

Hi Caleb! Goodness, thank you so much!

Hey,  Ben, you're right. These things tend to revise themselves over time! Thanks for stopping by.

Nice.  Glad you're back writing (and back.)

Wonderful, Mary!

Steven

thats was beautiful Mary. I love your playing and singing

Lovely.  You've done this a bit differently from when you originally performed it.
