Mike,
thanks for the encouragement. my wife says you should be glad i'm relatively quiet...enouraging me to write more is dangerous..retired college professor ya know...
One old topic i had mentioned earlier..my "Cherish the Waters"tour of the Chesapeake, in October.
It will be a circumnavigation trip, lasting about three weeks.
The intent is to bring attention to some of the conditions which constantly need attention, (runoff, population growth, sewage plants, oyster bed regeneration, development, etc) and to encourage individuals to take personal action. I will travel on my c dory 22 with a guitar player...I have three lined up , eachwill do a "leg" of the trip.
The tour is funded by Mainstay, my non profit music center,here in Rock Hall. We are asking people to be "endorsers" of the trip..No money asked, just to say they agree with the intent of the trip. (this is not a political, or "blame someone" venture..it is intended to build consensus)....
C Dory Marine was among the first to sign on as an endorser. and i now have over ten other groups...
We have already scheduled ten house concerts, where we will talk about the issues, but mostly play Chesapeake Bay music. The ten concerts so far are: Betterton, Middle River, Baltimore, Annapolis, Solomons, St. Mary's River, Tilghman Island, Miles River , Chestertown, and Rock Hall.
So, I have room for two or three more house concerts to if any local C Dory owners want to host one, get in touch with me here.
I'll "preview" someof the music in JUne at Lankford Bay.
