Today I went to the movies with my mom to see the remake of the 80′s classic Footloose. Now I love the original – one of my favorite movies and one if not the first soundtrack I owned, it was either Footloose or Cocktail. I know every word to every song on that soundtrack and [...]

Every year the Maine Windjammer Association hosts a Wooden Boat raft up in Brookin, Maine – home of the Wooden Boat School. It’s such a beautiful and quiet harbor but for this event all the Maine windjammers sail into the harbor and enjoy steamed mussels and a steel drum band. It cracks me up every [...]
