I have been trying to play guitar since finding peace of mind listening to a buddy play Alice’s Restaurant, in a bunker, under rocket and mortar fire in Viet Nam. Years passed profession and family were a priority for me. Started playing chords and basic songs with my 5 kids and now 18grandkids simple but fun. Several years ago joined Tony Acoustic Challenge to increase my 3 chord vocabulary and start my real guitar journey. Stop because of treatment for prostate Cancer Dx – Agent Orange connected from 2 tours in VN. Joined TAC again 2019 but had complications from abdominal blockages related to cancer treatment and again connected to VN. The surgery did not go well ended up at Palo Alto VA for 6 months plus home care until June 2020. Lost my Chiropractic practice and now 100% disabled well, I signed up a third time TAC trying to find peace of mind and fill my time and energy with guitar. Still in and out of the VA plus rehab has left my practice time on hold. My wife said get out of bed and try playing the blues! As of today 4/7/21 my energy and health are back sort of – Funny I have been a member for 3 years without enough strength to play or desire to play guitar. Now, I am re-committed to complete the 90-day challenge – Found a short scale guitar to meet my needs and  the sound of music will enlighten my soul. I am practicing 10 + minutes a day, in my small computer room. I will complete my profile and follow Tony’s plan.
