Old dog attempting to learn new tricks

Hi all,
I've been playing guitar for over 40 years but I feel I never really progressed past the basics. I strum and "finger pick" but I'd really love to learn "finger style". I play mostly Christian music and country style music.
Last weekend I enjoyed meeting and hearing The Brewster Brothers and Peter Pik (a guitar virtuoso - IMHO). To say I was inspired would be an understatement. - WOW.

I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's,
And his hair was perfect.
