What A Wonderful World

Post by Jim Hoke »

Here's an arrangement of this feel-good message song that I played and send out in the hopes that everybody has a wonderful new year, making the most of what we've learned from last years' challenges and this years' opportunities. Happy New Year to everyone and thanks to bOb for keeping the Forum going.
