I'm in my early thirties with a wonderful wife and two little boys, 21months and 3 months( I know, I must have been crazy to plan it that way).  I've been playing for about 13 years, but it doesn't sound like it ;D  I'm in sales(I'm sorry) for a fencing contractor specializing in commercial and industrial fence.  I used to race motorcycles, but have since given it up.  I'm an avid golfer, but I've learned that doesn't make you good.  I hope to get to know everyone here a little bit better and I'm just glad Josh has started this home away from home for us Taylor lovers.

Thanks,
Boone

Hi Boone - thanks for adding more to your bio. You are at a wonderful time in life with your two boys at that age. It is so fun to see them learn about world around them. My two girls are now 17 and 21 and pretty much grown up but I have great memories of them about the age yours are now. Thanks from me as well for being a moderator for our forum  :)

Hi Boone, and like John429 said, thanks for adding more to your bio! You sound like a really nice family man! 8)

In another forum someone posted a YouTube video which I enjoyed. After watching it, I checked out some of the other videos by the same guy, and when I saw the title of one, I thought of you!  ;D

Thanks for the warm welcome.  Josh gave me the privaledge of being involved in this forum, and I jumped on it.  Cindy, thanks for the link.  I have to say, it's been rough growing up with the name Boone, but I have learned to love it as I got older.  When I first started playing guitar, I had to learn some Johnny Cash so I could sing " A Boy Named Boone", people seemed to enjoy it ;D

thanks for sharing about yourself & for your willingness (& Cindy's) to be a moderator here

we maple peeps need to stick together ;)
it's not about what you play,
