Sounds wonderful Mick. I got to meet and swap songs with Jewell and Cindy long ago, when the musical tradition was really hanging by a thread. So glad it's come back.

So, what's the exact date for next year? (to book rental homes often requires getting your reservation in January 2 8:01 am) We used to hold clan reunions up there but haven't been for 10 years. It's a logistical nightmare when you're scattered as far as we are. Maybe we can get our butts on the boat next year.

And now I have my very own song to contribute (my Mississippi whaling song) so I can hold my head up amongst the Island songwriters.
