Jeremiah, the song "Birches" was beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes. Please let me know who sings it and what album I can find it on. I need to have it.

Dan, I remember hearing Buffy St. Marie do "Last Night I Had the Strangest Dream" , but I don't remember it from the Kingston Trio. I've always loved that song. It always gives me chills. I'll have to go thru our KT collection and try to find it.

To me, the strongest mental images were from anything written by Mickey Newbury. I have been trying to recall some of the lines, but it's been so long since I listened to him. His records were all wrecked by a small pet skunk I used to have. JoJo liked to pull out our records and pull each one out of it's sleeve. He was a real little stinker ;-) We eventually had to give him to someone who had a big farm. Last time I saw him, he was rooting around in a wood on the farm. Well, anyway. Mickey Newbury.
