Wish it weren’t such a drive! He’s great! I have his first set of “A Few Tunes” CD and Book - great stuff!

I drove over 8000 miles last year to take a lesson with that cute little elf, Sandy Jasper.

For my second lesson, 3 hours out of South Carolina isn’t so bad!

Talked with David Dirlam yesterday, and he sounds like a really cool guy. He persuaded me to reserve a private lesson with John.

Hope to meet some C&F’ers there!
