Hmmph. A typical note from a guy who lives in a town named after a place
that once hosted thousands of filthy hippy acid-heads for a disgusting
concert in the mud. You're too stoned to write! You're probably one of those
Dems who was in Chicago in 1968, attacking innocent riot police.

====================================

Don, you're absolutely right. There is nothing in SWFL that would
appeal to any right thinking tourist (or left thinking either). Stay
home. Do not drive to Ft Myers Beach or Sanibel Island under any
circumstance; the sun and tropical water is unsafe for northeners
unless they have purchased a home here. It would be much better to
take a winter vacation in Nova Scotia or the Cape Breton Islands,
especially given the long window of opportunity afforded by the
weather.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

I heard that Krause organized the whole event and later took all the
performers on a ride on his $300,000 custom Lobster boat. They were the
only ones to ever see it and unfortunately they were too stoned at the time
to remember it.

Damn it - now you've gone and ruined everything. I keep telling
people that Woodstock happened in my pasture.

That's actually true - some buy it, some don't. :>)

Little trivia - there are eleven towns/cities named Woodstock in the
United States.

Ha ha ha ha..... That was a good one!

Actually, truth be known. I remember the original Woodstock (Max Yazgur's farm
in Bethel, NY). Okay, okay, so I was only 9 years old, but to this day, I can
vividly recall a bunch of bikers and hippies invading my family's 10 acre horse
pasture to camp out for the night! I would sneak outside and go hang out with
them. My older sisters would catch me and bring me back in the house before
someone tried to slip me some "purple microdots" or some kind of mushrooms or
something. Thank God for my older sisters, as they protected me from an
a$$-whoopin' that I knew I was gonna get from my dad. He was furious at the
bikers and hippies and couldn't do anything about it. Wow.... memories....

till October.

Well, I'm going out this weekend in Far Cove - looks like the weather will hold.
They're predicting rising easterlies today, so it would be an easy run either
across to the Gulf Islands or up to Lasquitti. Unfortunately, if the easterly
holds, it would be a BITCH to get back from Lasquitti on Sun. They're predicting
a shift to Westerlies on Sun, but I don't know when...

There - that's as political as I get!
