I vividly remember the thrill of my first Folklife, in 1986. It was the first time I'd ever performed on stage (well, at least the first time since I was Baby Bear in my first grade production of Goldilocks). I performed with now-Mudcatter David Ingerson and Mary Benson, and I was in heaven! Wish I could go this year. I'll be thinking about all you folks. Give my best to the Sacred Cow Harmogenizers. One of these years...

Aloha,
Mark
