Hi there fans,
The island crew (Gary, Dave, Marcy & Lou) spent the past two days planning and packing the van. On our recent week-long Memphis trip we honed our space saving skills, so we actually had room to spare when we caught the 7:00 AM Swan Quarter ferry this morning. Ultimately, that spare room will be filled by Gerald Hampton, his luggage, and most significantly Gerald's standup bass!
With Fiddler Dave up top looks like there is a lot of room!
Too late to turn back now. We're on the Swan Quarter Ferry!
Arriving in Swan Quarter around 9:45, we headed across Lake Mattamaskeet to Fairfield, NC for a morning mini-concert at Mattamaskeet Opportunities. After the concert we headed for Little Washington, NC (not to be confused with Little Washington, VA . . . where we are tomorrow night). On the way on 264 we passed the Zion Episcopal Church and just had to stop and do some singing.
This beautiful building was built in 1856 and boasts some mighty fine natural acoustics.
