29 Nov 09 - 06:55 AM (#2775973) Subject: Morrigan Phillips From: kendall On Friday, a dark, gloomy, rainy day we were visited by Morrigan Phillips, daughter of Utah Phillips. She and her two friends, Marsha and Paul, came up from Boston to spend some time with us. It was just lovely. We swapped stories about her Dad and it was obvious to me that she has much of her Dad in her. She is witty, very bright, a great conversationalist and pretty to boot! Maybe I can talk her into getting on the forum to share some of her stories about my hero, Utah. |

Her father was, and probably still is, very proud of her. Depite having started college with the intention of getting a degree in business, she is now going for a Masters in Social Work back therre in the Mysterious East. Mark Ross |

It sounds like there might be the beginnings here of a new Phillips out there making life great for us folks... astro in LA |

He has woven a tale or two in his time, as well. I like the Orphan Train as done by Fast Rattler. I can imagine that Utah would enjoy that his daughter has decided to change from business to social work. |

Though I didn't find out about the nomination until we had already lost, Utah didn't tell me!.) But my personal favorite is his 1st Philo record GOOD THOUGH, a superb collection of Rail Road songs.
