"The man with the squeezebox" = Emery Hutchins ("Hutch") and Meg Terreson -- not his wife (Kit, I think, would get a giggle about that). Meg was a Press Room Friday stalwart, but work, etc. considerations have kept her from attending for several years. This was the first time Meg's been to the seamusic singaround.

They both were in the vicinity because of the garden tour and came to the session independently, but happened to arrive at the same time. (Left about the same time, too, but heading in different directions. Hutch lives in Maine and Meg is the last house in Nottingham, just down the road from Jeri.)

Was really nice to have Lynn Cullen join us. She was "last seen" at the first China Seas shanty sings that Tom and I went to about 3 years ago. Tyler Buck, who showed up later with her friend Jan, evidently told her that Saturday was the day. (I got organized this time and actual set out reminders to my "musical events" list -- Tyler's on it.)
