The day you suggested I was busy. Seems to be a habit with you. Here's a blast from the past ... 1994 or 1995 or so. You announced you were traveling to Boston for some purpose and asked if anyone could recommend a place to go fishing. I was new to rec.boats then and offered to take you out fishing on the boat I had at the time. In fact, Justan was going to join us. I made the offer to you but suddenly you no longer had the time. Then the famous encounter with Peggie Hall at the boat show. You described her here, told us how you walked by the booth a couple of times but never had the courage to go up to her and introduce yourself. Can't blame you. Even back then she probably would have called security based on the way you treated her here. I've had the pleasure of meeting up with a few of the rec.boats participants over the years. Obviously, I've known Justan for many years and we've had a few beers back when we drank beer. There was another guy ... Charlie ... who went by the handle "Wavelength" also. He had a boat in the same marina. I also met up with a guy who used to post here who lived in San Diego. Mrs.E. and I were taking a trip out there for a friend's wedding and we met up with the guy and his wife for dinner at a restaurant. Nice couple. Can't remember his name. Again, this was many moons ago. |

I still have the portable light that you sent many years ago. I think I sent you a CD of the "Delta Generators" later. |

Again, this was many moons ago. Can not,remember his name either. But he kept the boat in SD in the summer and lived in Arizona. Wife and I went out for a day on his boat. Very nice couple. |

There was a long line of people waiting to meet up with Peggy at the Annapolis show, and I didn't feel like waiting. I was busy the day Fretwell was available; I'm not retired, and had other obligations. These days, there's probably only one person I'd care to meet up with...Nova Scotia Donnie. There used to be more, but they've left...there was a Canadian boat dealer, a sailing boat guy from Philly, and, of course, Larry from South Carolina. He was interesting and bizarre...attributes I find appealing. The rest of you, all righties, nah. |

I do remember thinking I might stop by your musical instrument store to take a peek at your B3 Hammonds, but by the time I got around to it, you had closed or sold the store. That was the last time I was in Boston, but I have been in Providence twice since. I've been in New Haven and environs twice this summer and another trip is in the offing, but I doubt we'll get further east than Guilford. The Boston trip and fishing invite was back in the mid 90's, as I indicated in my original post. |

Wife and I had a nice visit with him at James Island County Park. I'm wondering why Donnie hasn't offered to have Harry come spend some quality time with him up there in NS. You'd think Donnie would love having Harry's company for a couple weeks! I couldn't imagine spending a couple hours on a boat with the guy. |
