Barry, nice to have met you as well as Dick and Susan, and the NYC Southstreet Seaport crew. Matt B, I understand bumped his foot at the last moment and couldn't make it out.

A great time was had by all. It was only 3 days a ago, but I reflect on the cool 70s and 80's weather at Mystic with a certain nostalgia -- it has been a blistering 124 degrees (51 C) out here in the Gulf ... ugh.

I can highly recommend Mystic to anyone needing a concentrated infusion of sea chanteys and sea songs, before going on a dry spell. See you at the next one!

Al Hamdalla ! Cheers, Brian
