So there I was with the television on and my banjo in my lap. I was watching the Detroit Lions while, at the same time, practicing the old "bum ditty" strum. I need the practice and I thought maybe, just maybe this might (somehow) help the Lions to finally win a game.
It didn't.
Final score: My bum ditty getting better / Detroit Lions getting worse!

I have always enjoyed listening to bluegrass music and I have also always wanted to learn how to play acoustic guitar and banjo! Now I am semi-retired , (retired from my career with the postal service but still working part-time), and I want to learn how to play the banjo. I am a pure beginner but I have the drive, determination and interest level to learn! I am also a licensed amateur radio operator and the proud father of four wonderfully talented and fully grown children!
