Josie, It's really great to see you posting a song again! I've definitely missed having you around  I really enjoyed this. I'd love to be able think of some of the lyrics that seem to come so effortlessly to you. Try as I might, though, they never seem to pop into my head. You're a very talented songwriter! I'm looking forward to more All the best, Noel

Hi Josie,
Yes, it's REALLY good to see you posting songs again. Not been here much myself, since
the new year, but didn't want to miss your return.
This is absolutely brilliant, both in it's concept and it's execution. I smiled all
the way through. (Twice.)
A perfect backing track and wonderful vocals, with harmonies which are just inspired.
It's great to have you back and I'm looking forward to more songs from you this year.
Cheers, ROG.

Great to hear you again Josie. As you know we come from a long bluegrass background so this is right in our wheelhouse. Janice mentioned that the feel is a lot like The Marshall Family that we used to listen to many years ago. A very similar vocal style - nice and flowing. Your use of those RTs shows a genuine appreciation for the nuances of arranging and mixing a bluegrass based tune.
The imagery rich lyric was terrific and we really liked the stopped vocal section.
Well done!!
J&B
PS There was a foot log on our family farm to get to the best fishing spot. Thank you Janice and Bud! I appreciate that alot.

Josie, Your chorus works well with the bluegrass sound/instruments. The holler/swallers rhyme is clever.
Thank you FJ!

Josie,
I've been wanting to comment on this, and have neglected in doing so.
This is a very enjoyable listen... I'm a huge fan of story songs, anyway. This a well-crafted work, all the way around.
