    Welcome! Yes, playing in an alternate tuning occasionally makes it fun and interesting.

    @stevieblues @Marisa
    Thank you both for taking the time to listen, and your kind words.
    Yes; the harmonica can have a harsh effect on canine ears. LOL

    Hello! I tried to watch it. It is set up as a private video. You need to make it unlisted, then others can watch it with the link.

    Thank you all for listening and the encouragement. It was a fun one to do.
    That’s something I will have to try Bill. Thanks much!
    I agree Albert!

    I’m not sure what kind of guitar you play; but there are 3/4 size guitars. The Baby Taylor is 3/4 size, and the GS Mini by Taylor is very popular also, and just slightly larger than a 3/4 size. Many brands make smaller size guitars. That might help if you are not already using one like that. Stretching for chords is definitely a challenge. The best to you!

    You can do both; and it is extremely helpful to do both in the long run. Some of the Skill Courses are for finger picking; some are for flat picking. Some of the daily challenges use finger picking; some flat picking. Over time you will get better at both. I have found they both have their plus side; and certain songs work better with one or the other style. “I just did Simple Man”. Of course it is electric, and I believe Lynyrd Skynyrd used picks. In this case, since I was doing it solo on an acoustic, I switched from a pick to finger style, and found that worked best for me. It’s fun to experiment.
