Comment on Gratitude by bob field

Finally had a moment to follow the link you emailed, which led me to this site. Not sure why you were sheepish about announcing the release, and also unclear why it is something you said you’d never do! I’ve enjoyed reading back through many, many entries, and listening to this song several times while I did so.

You have much to share; thank you for taking the time to do so.

Comment on The right combination by Patti

Scott,

Your mention of the Wanamaker organ reminded me of a story about my father…I asked my mother to recount it, so here goes: “Dad was still in the US Navy, recuperating from a very serious illness, but was released from the naval hospital to play a recital on the Wanamaker organ on Good Friday. He was still in uniform (he had not yet been discharged) and took 2 other sailors with him to pull out the stops. The night before, he was in the store after it closed to practice for the next day. I’m not absolutely sure what the piece was that required using the 32 foot pedals (or was it 64 foot?). It might have been the Good Friday Spell from Parsifal. Anyway the nightwatchman who was walking around the perfume counters down below hollered up to Dad “Sailor, you’re breaking all the Chanel no.5! Cut it out!”

Comment on Best whale watch… ever by Bob Klemm

Great pics! It was just a year ago that we were up there and had a pretty good whale watch as well. Looks as if it was a little more sunny for yours.

Scott,
I’ll never forget doing a whale watch 25+ years ago off Provincetown. It was absolutely magical, especially when we came across a mother humpback and her baby. Their playful dance around the boat was captivating (the boat tipping from one side to the other as we humans raced back and forth was somewhat less captivating, but who cared?). Glad you and Andrew shared this remarkable experience.

This little comment weaves a crooked trail from Wesley Methodist Worcester to Christ Methodist Fraser (Michigan) with a Presbyterian stop in between. The choreography is unbelievable but I would like to assure you fantastic results can be achieved with just two ringers provided their shoelaces don’t become untied. I have already volunteered to be the third ringer.

Comment on Visit with greatness by Laurie Phillips

I’m glad you got to visit with Mary. She was so patient with me when I wanted to try ringing bells – and I had NO idea what I was doing. She’s such a nice lady with a wonderful sense of humor. Tell her I said HI!

Amen! I’ll be riding my bike to school tomorrow, Scott. It’s great to get outdoors. I missed seeing you at Sundown this winter.
