Flamencos and other LC guitar players

Greetings from Cathlamet, Washington, near the mouth of the Columbia River. It's not exactly an area with lots of Gitanos, but there are a few flamenco fans around. I'm one; I've been trying to learn to play the guitar since 1971. Flamenco is rhythmic music and full of vitality. Perhaps this blog will lead to connections with other flamencos.

I belong to a group known as the Wahkiakum Acoustic Guitar Society. We are a bunch of guitar aficionados and meet twice a month on first and last Wednesdays to jam and play songs. I'll post those dates in another area of this blog.
