I just started listening to the tapes this morning -- we shouldn't forget Charley's "The Landlord's Lullaby".

I also regaled the crowd with the story (and photograph that my sister had just sent me) of my parents' first apartment in Colby, Wisconsin in 1947. For $17 a month they got a second floor apartment with the bathroom down an outside stairway to a garage in the back. And then...the landlord sold the garage and they had to avail themselves of the facilities in the Mobil gas station (alsoin the photo) across the street (Hwy. 13) from them.

Just found this http://www.historic-uk.com/CultureUK/PaceEgging.htm this morning, which ties in with the Watersons' song Deborah sang early in the evening. (Been meaning to learn that one for years.)
