Hello: My name is Dawn and I joined guitar tricks a bit ago after a recommendation from a friend when I inquired about guitar instructors in a facebook post. I have always loved guitar music and have wanted to play most of my life. My only music background was from 5-12th grade on clarinet. This was an instrument an aunt gave me that she bought at a yards sale. My grandmother was a piano player and I am planning on taking lessons in piano as well. I had shopped for the last year for my first guitar and finally stopped procrastinating on a decision when my mother died last month. At 44 I decided it was time to start tackling the bucket list that included acoustic guitar. I didnt realize how much focusing my energy into music would really help me cope with the loss of my mom in a positive way. I really am loving this site.

Peace and beautiful music to you all.

Dawn
