Thank you, Ron, for the most resonant post
since the Gathering ended.

I may have contributed to Kurt's poll
being taken down from Jonmark's board,
though I think Jonmark shared my view
that Newbury Gathering material might
best be kept on the Newbury porch.
At the time, I was becoming aware
of some divergence of opinions
and didn't want to encourage more
division in our spirit. Kurt, I admire
your enthusiasm and talent, and if
I hurt your feelings, I apologize.

I was one who, briefly at least
and without any hidden agenda,
suggested that it might be fun
to look for an alternative site.
That's just the gypsy spirit in me,
always interested in new places.
I am so indebted to the souls
who rock on these porches
and want the gathering idea
to continue to be fresh, inviting.

I cannot imagine a gathering
without Mamie, Susie, Laura, Leah
and other members of Mickey's
family. As unassuming as they are,
they are the heart of it.

I can't imagine a gathering
without Susan W and Roy.

If Jonmark and Cowboy are there,
I want to be there, too.

I also cannot imagine a gathering
without "the voice."

Your voice, Ron. That voice
always seems to speak for me,
and I know many feel the same.

Good to hear it again!
