Rog, I might be able to get something up when I get somewhere with WiFi for the laptop!! All the tales and pix you see describing the "Leaf colour" here in Autumn is short of the mark and inadequate next to the reality. It is Spectacular!!!!

Leaf peeper?
If it is Tourist Season, why can't we shoot them?

We will work out a meeting. Jacqui and Kendall are suffering with what may be the flu, Seamus is with me until Monday AM, I think. Tami is having back trouble - the walking wounded here in Maine, But you will be met; you have a bed; you have a bottle or two of something worth drinking.

After an amazing session at The Press room that included some Dutch folkies (including the Shanty singer that Johnny Collins used to stay with in Holland!!) I am back Chez Linn and Tom and about to join a Lying-down workshop. The hospitality and friendship here in our Mudcat community is amazing !!!, First Chance and Suzette in DC, then those wonderful FSGW folks at West River (and a special mention to Nancy King for her help getting back to Silver Spring), then Allison and Hunt in Nelson NH and now Here in Nottingham NH, it has been a kaleidoscope of lovely people and warmth, every now an then some startling thing prompts a memory.....( I have the pictures,they may have to wit till I get home to appear)
The Duet of a Ukelele and French Horn(I kid you not)
Fall colours near Tolman Pond (I am now a "Leaf peeper")
The singing of Barry Finn all weekend and tonight.
Magic all of them
the plan from here seems to be (maybe) wine tasting tomorrow?
Acorns Monday evening, (Don't know if Mary is making the trip to join us)
Train from Portsmouth to Portland Tuesday (probably arrive Marys afternoon) to join Quiz team in the evening.
After that it goes a bit fuzzy

Your hard working Gnome has arrived in Portsmouth NH as per spec and is ensconced in the Public Library. After a wonderful time at TamLin in Keene NH I have made it for the Press Room. Morty I dont think SatNav would help as I have been lost 3 times in 4 trips thanks to it!!! maybe a Radio Location Beacon would be better that would,at least give my present position!! which is Parrott ave, Portsmouth, but then you knew that!!!

When and where is this pub quiz thingie?
Even if I can't play because Jason hates me (sniff, sniff), I can cheer. (And sit in the punter section and mutter about how I knew a furlong was an eighth of a mile and I knew what purpose a chalaza serves.

I will be at the Press Room as Tom's chauffeur (do I have to wear the outfit and open the doors and all that crap?), and then there will be wine and food and perhaps some sightseeing/peef leaping or stuff. Plus Tom tells me Acorns have blue-cheese crusted fillet Mignon again.

Jason is eagerly anticipating your addition to the team on Tuesday. The rest of the lads haven't been very reliable about showing up lately and he's been a team of one or two the last several weeks. SO you had better not disappoint him, Micca.

Hi, Micca!

Thanks for the heads up!

The good news is that -- as of yesterday -- we can actually get INTO the guest room (where you will be staying) so I can promise clean sheets, at least. The rest of the house is a disaster, but I'm sure you'll cope.

I thought the New England Center (Acorns) was closed on Monday (the only early week evening I'm not working), but it's open and we can have dinner then. But Flag Hill Winery, alas, doesn't open their tasting room until Wednesday. I've been looking forward to tasting their recent addition -- apple brandy.

See you tomorrow!

Linn

I am at Chance and Suzettes, we are going out to eat, the "confusion" arose from the fact that They had to Work!! and I was swanning around the DC with a very nice lady, before being delivered here. Having been hugged within an inch of my life at the Getaway, I will try and write more later but the Late nights and "another Port" and things have left me a bit.....errrm.... parson?

delawarejoe, Micca I was looking up "pufferbelly" and came across that you sailed on a ship 1/4 mile long? Could you tell me the name of the ship, and what company it belong to? I assume that this was in the 60's or 70's.
