    @stevieblues Thank you! Thanks for listening and watching.

    @KevinZ Thanks much, very kind!
    @Moonhare Thank you! Not sure. 😀
    I have been messing around with 7 chord shapes, but with a capo on the 3rd fret. I really like the sound of the progression, but am trying to build on finger picking the 7 chord shapes. Of course that changes the chords. The root note of C on the first chord becomes a D#. I am weak on music theory, and the notes in the chord now don’t seem to fit completely D# major or minor (a hybrid?). I just know the notes of that chord, and the progression work well together. This is where collaboration would be nice.
    @Marisa Thank you! It is indeed a great enhancement.
    @Bill_Brown Thank you for your encouraging and gracious words! We have partially raised these two; and they still are over here a lot. It is a joy; but they are getting harder to keep up with. 😂

    So much good advice here. I am heading toward 70; have arthritis in the hands; only started TAC 21 months ago; and only started playing at all a few months before that. So, how far could I get at my age? I am farther than I thought; playing things now I never thought I could. I learned not to compare to others, and just do what I could do. The consistency of a little time each day builds up. Combining the daily challenge, some skill courses; eventually looking at some songs from other sources as I had time; and just messing around; I have come to where I am. LOL Sounds kind of obvious (maybe even a little loony); but where I am is a lot different from where I started, even with my limits. As some of us old folk may say; “keep on truckin'”. You will surprise yourself! Enjoy the ride!

    @Dirk_R The Songbook used to be a part of TAC. It isn’t anymore. You had to pay separately for it. It included step by step instructions on a lot of songs (from beginner to hard), for both flat and finger picking. Those who had bought it before still have access to it. I am not sure if it is possible to get now, but you could ask.
