Here's to you Rick. Sorely missed at the Mudcat and wherever folksingers gather...

I drive past Rick and Heather's house--well, Heather's house--every Friday on my delivery route, which always causes me to think of Rick and wonder how Heather's getting on--glad to hear she is keeping up the radio show. (I don't stop in though cause I don't want to disturb, and I am terrified of that driveway on busy Kingston Road.)

I'd play a tune for Rick on his old guitar, but I can't, cause it's on loan to a singing friend in Toronto who was sadly bereft of a guitar due to hard economic times. Appropriate enough I guess. The only request he ever made of me about that instrument was to play "Leezy Lindsay" on it sometimes cause that was the first song he ever sang to Heather in a courting way--can't you just picture the scene? (Sniffles here.)

Best
Bill
