Hi George of Bar Harbor!

Getting all packed to come back to our rental home on the Union River in
Trenton, Maine and Acadia National Park for two weeks, on June 1!

On the classical station bit, I wrote that WGMS was one of the few
commercial, (non PBS) stations let in the country and I am surprised that
Maine has a commercial classical station. They do a good job, from what we
hear when we are in Maine in the June and the fall.

Of course, WERU in East Orland,does NOT play any classical music! LOL! A
little on the strange side, but they do play lots of Folk music!

Might stop by your lab, to say hello, if that is okay?
