This is a beautiful song by Dawes made less beautiful by me. The verse about the dog might have had something to do with me getting a puppy. 

I posted the chords/lyrics at Ultimate Guitar.

Watching 5-year-olds play soccer is entertaining. Here's Benjamin's first goal, caught on film by another dad you can hear yelling, and his little celebration afterwards. The guy who high-fives him at the end is the other team's coach. 

John 20:4 So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.

Interviewing the kids about our January trip to Disneyland -- kind of a video journal for the family.

Screaming good times at the happiest place on earth! I didn't realize until I started editing how often our 5-year-old was scared to tears. 

Visiting the beach, before and after Disneyland. Corona del Mar and Huntington Beach, California.

It's time for some Simon and/or Garfunkel by me and my strangely handsome clone:

The snow has melted enough for some bike riding around the lake. Video is at 25x speed. 

A couple of years ago I bought a banjo. I finally started taking lessons. I found The Academy of Bluegrass, where you can take lessons on the banjo, guitar, dobro, mandolin, fiddle. The larger company Artistworks also has lessons for drums, bass, and classical instruments. You log in and watch however many instructor videos you have time for that day and download tablature for practice. When you feel like you have a song coming along, you make a video of yourself playing it and upload it to your instructor for feedback. Pretty cool!
