Trying out a recent cigar box guitar with an original ditty about my home state.

My good old 2013 computer died and with it my movie maker died. This vid was edited on youtube and I don't know how to do much in that format.

Another outstanding Uncle John production. The simplicity in your videos is so refreshing and makes then songs very beautiful.

Nice performance John.

Thanks, Doug.  I hope I did not steal the tune, but I might have....  It sounds familiar, but I can not place it.   Lots of the old waltz tunes sound similar.

Good to see you back in action Uncle John! Still in fine form, great original song.

Thanks, Andries.  I may contact Derek.  I edited this with the Youtube editor, but would LOVE to have movie maker back. Yup, got a new and not too pricy Dell lap top over a year ago when the old desk top started showing signs of failing health,.

Well, gee, AGP.  I have Windows Editor with the newer lap top.  I will hold it as an option to learn.  On first look (with this video) it did not seem Uncle John Friendly.  Come to Iowa AGP, where is REALLY NICE about  a hundred days a year.

Nice Acoustic Sounding Little 3 String 'UJ', and a Sweet Song about your Home Sweet Home :-)

Always sad to hear about the passing of an old Computer, I do hope everything was backed up ?

I'm currently running Windows 10 on a Desk Top Personal Computer, and have been using their Video Editor, which I find very east to use.

Also nice to see you looking fit and healthy in light Summer clothing, we've just got over one of our wettest Summer/ Autumns ever, and it has now finally stopped raining, BUT!, Winter has now set in with a vengeance, and they're telling us it's going to be our coldest Winter on record, and I believe them, because it's Bloody Freezing in on our so called "Sunshine Coast" area where I live at the moment, and the poor old Arthritic Bones aren't coping with it at all, not cold by your standards, but very cold for this Old Sun Loving Lizard. ;-D
