Thanks Andrew. It certainly is a summer vibe song. Regarding the guitar playing, thanks. I've been at it for a while. I learned that making the playing fit the song was better that showing off. I can show off if I wanted to do that but really, for quite some time, it's been about playing to make the song shine. I learned this when I was in a 3 piece working band. It's the groove, it's the rhythm, it's the song baby!

All serious songwriters should always be attentive to what is happening around them because you never know where that next great song idea is going to come from.
