Thanks to Mick Purdy and Jason Wilson for keyboards and harmonies. And thanks to Ed Husum for the wonderful "Safe Harbor" painting he did of the Balboa Yacht Club in Panama. Just right for this song, Ed.

Chris and I wrote this together. I helped with the lyrics and few melody lines. I also produced and engineered it, but it was pretty much his baby. He played all the guitars and sang all the lead vocal parts.

Chris and I became friends when he began playing guitar with me in the praise and worship team I led (for twenty years) during the turn of the twentieth century. I was probably forty-five and he was about fifteen. A very talented man, indeed. We were like father and son for years, but he was also my closest friend. I don't recall ever having an argument with him in all the years we were together. I sure remember a ton of laughs !!
