The American Elm was the "go to" tree as the thing planted for shade in the mostly treeless Great Plains. As those Plains gave way to villages and towns and then to cities, the American Elm was the favored "street tree" that lined the streets in idyllic neighborhoods. There is an American Elm that has stood in Oklahoma City since before statehood, overlooked an ignored, that is, until April 19, 1995, when it's sturdiness became a prominent part of a story that shook and restored the faith of a nation.

All the kids had been raised and the youngest grandkid was starting school, it was time for a new chapter for Emma Belle. The next big step required a high school diploma and a driver's license, two things she didn't have. What she did have was a lot of grit and determination...throw in a used Nash Rambler and the rest was history!

Sometimes it takes decades for a story to come around. Years ago I made a deal to acquire a particular guitar and though many a day has passed since the agreement was made, the instrument has made it into my home. It's a story of youth, hopes, dreams and loss...but mostly about the friends you find through music.
