Later today, after the fog lifts here in Michigan, I will take my guitar to the park.

Thanks for sharing this video. I hope you made it to the park today with your guitar.
The last two videos you have shared on the forum have left me wondering if I should just sell my guitars and take up another pastime.
On a more serious note, I'm interested in seeing a couple of videos with Larrivee classical guitars. I guess I'll do an online search.

Oh no. I certainly hope not. My wish is that perhaps someone will find these videos inspirational. (I know not everyone will, of course.)
edited to add: Yes, I went to the park Tuesday afternoon.
I live in a condo and I have a very nice resonator guitar that is too loud to play at home without alarming my neighbors so I can only play it outdoors. It doesn't get out much so I really enjoy the days like this.
On a serious note, both of those videos are really good and serve as a reminder of the untapped possibilities that lie within every guitar. I appreciate the many eyes and ears on this forum.
Reminds me of how much I love playing outside. But, I don't have much opportunity to do it as the sun is very intense here, even in the dead of winter. I'm currently in the years long process of building a very large koi pond that will have sun shade over head and a deck that sits against the water. I'll be spending many hours with my feet in the water and a guitar in my lap.

That sounds cool, B0WIE.
I hope we will see pictures of it when it's complete. Or perhaps progress pics like your guitar stand and the Forum VII that John Jr. posts...
Re: the hot sun,
I was under roof in the park's gazebo yesterday.
Love the sound of classical guitar :smile:

Did you ever complete the Classical Guitar Corner Academy class or certification?

Sorry. Just saw this now. I made it up to grade 5 and decided to focus on some other learning opportunities. The academy is excellent and is a great way to learn the classical guitar.
