Thank you for those songs Roger. I am looking forward to the day when we meet and can share the songs that move us and that make us joyful. I've been a therapist so long that not much makes me cry deeply any more but I am moved by Geraldine and Ruthie Mae...The Randall Knife makes me think about my best friend from childhood, Mickey Van who died when we were thirty eight. I sat in her room at the wake with all our dearest childhood friends downstairs (sailors all and very raucous) and cried and I looked at her tanksuit hanging up in the closet and I wanted it because we swam so many races together as teammates...I am joyful that her niece Tracy Van is the youngest champion woman ski jumper in the US. Watch for her at the Olympics. Mickey and I spent many winters jumping moguls at Mt. Christie and Alpine Valley in the winter when we couldn't swim... regards, harp
