Thanks! Fortunately the Internet access has been OK at the Quality Inn in South Hill Virginia. Not much going on here other than work and guitar playing, a handful of restaurants. Unfortunately there is almost nothing for live rock band entertainment in these parts (small town Sat. night bars like we have in Penna. and NY), I'm told this is the Bible Belt. Downloading the GT Blues lessons has really helped. Raleigh & Richmond are both an hour and a half away. There is a great mom and pop guitar shop in Richmond called "Guitar Works".
It is what it is and look forward to going home for Christmas break for a few weeks.
Have a great one!
Tony
