Subject: RE: BS: Around the Kitchen Table
I'm still getting back into the rhythm of this place. I want to respond to to individual posts, but it looks like I have to lump them together. I'm not complaining about the state of folk music in this country. It is what it is. I've had a good, long run and am grateful for it. I ran a folk concert series at the Stamford Museum and Nature Center for 29 years, did a short-lived folk festival there. I played in a lot of festival on the East Coast and as far west as Missouri. I am blessed to have a few old friends and we get together often. On my 90th birthday back on June 14th, I was blessed to have Colin and Myra Healy and Frank and Barbara Shaw here at the house to help me celebrate. We are old friend from way back.

In recent years I have focused more on my writing and have published two award-winning books. Facebook fits my adventures more now, and I've made a slew of friends there. Many of them are here on Mudcat, too. My life is full.
