Notes
i just did a google images search for "beautiful colorado snowy landscape" to put something pretty in the thumbnail for this video.
i don't know who those people are, but those snowy mountains in the background are just beautiful aren't they?

in this video...Uncle Larry plunks on a 58 burst and gets into some naughty VCB...

"can't forget the way her brown hair catches the wind...shoulda stayed in coloraaaaaadoooo".....
ya' know, something like that for the last bit of the soaring chorus...
