Subject: RE: Last Shanty Swap at China Sea-11/23 (Maine)
I was too tired and keyed up to post last night. This was the very best swap so far. Lots of music, poetry, stories, new faces, old friends, and laughter.

The acCOWnt of the cow causing UDDER destruction out of the sky is classic.

Kendall's portrayal of Neptune mid the recitation of a Ruth Moore poem was perfect. Jeri is the only one I know who can keep the crusty old captain in line. Bravo!

Fred and Julia offered beautiful harmonies and some hilarious parodies. Good to see Naemanson again - it's been a while. Barry and his buffet were welcome additions as were Uncle Jaques and Brian's pennywhistles. And I was very grateful to Linn and tom for getting me through Three Score and Ten. It is embarrassing when the lyrics just up and go.

As for "sweet and old fashioned": I will be sure to give Kendall a dose of my best "Scarlett O'Hara" coyness. I do declare, Captain.I had no idea you were such a rogue. Oh fiddle dee dee! Well there's always tomorrow...
