He was celebrating his wedding anniversary on Harney\/Black Elk Peak. He wanted to hear the song I played at his wedding. I had a hard time finding an mp3 of it, so I made a new recording of it over the last couple days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Happy Anniversary Richard &amp; Tracy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those interested in stories about songs (I&#8217;m one of those people), I wrote this song somewhere around 1998, 1999. I was swimming at Hippie Hole (see above picture). Back then before google published it&#8217;s location, it was much quieter and hard to find. I was swimming alone and someone had taken the rope used to help climb back up to the top. I just climbed the rock where the rope was. After the 2nd or 3rd time, I thought about little Adam who would have been 1-2 years old. I thought about how rough it would be on him, if something happened to me. After that, I took the long walk around to get back up (until the rope was replaced).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I Think About You &#8211; by Willy Grigg<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever I feel the threat of danger<br>\nWhenever I see a mysterious stranger<br>\nWhen I see the sun all bright and shining<br>\nWhenever I need a silver lining<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I hear some birds out singing and flying<br>\nWhenever I hear a baby crying<br>\nWhen I think my life is just beginning<br>\nWhenever I think I might be winning<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019re my peaceful forest, you\u2019re my flowing stream<br>\nYou\u2019re the place I can lay me down and dream and dream<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I received a call last weekend from my dear friend Richard Perdue.
