It's been 50 years since the sinking...Still people remember...

I have this song on my iPod. As I recall, Mr. Lightfoot wrote this song after reading an article about the sinking where the name of the ship was misspelled. He felt that was disrespectful and wrote the song in response. He showed/played it for the families of the crew first and asked permission to release it. And afterwards, if I remember correctly, he donated the royalties to the families.

I'll never forget for two reasons:

Gordon Lightfoot is my all-time favorite singer-songwriter. And ...

My youngest daughter's birthday is 10 November.

She just told me that she always thought the Edmund Fitzgerald was an old sailing ship from the 1800's. She queried her older sister about it and found that older sis thought the same thing. One of my great passions, beside music, is history. I've failed my girls. *Shock*
Such a dramatic, impactful song. I always sing along when it is featured on radio play.
A fun little song to remind problems on where to go:



Here's hoping everyone has a great weekend!
Howdy Howdy all!

I've been doing little more than lurking as of late. My son works 2nd shift sometimes getting off between 1 and 3 am and then my daughter goes in at 6 am. Since I'm the "Uber", my sleep schedule is all wonky. I miss you guys, and the interactions. Lord willing, and the creek doesn't rise, I'll be back to my normal shenanigans. By the way, where did this year go? *FacePalm* *Crazy*

Best wishes for a restorative sleep routine! I know how wonky it can get. Sounds like you have your hands full. *Pray*

I've been a-wonderin' where you've been! Glad to see you are still here! *Smile*
I understand. I just retired in September. I'm still trying to reeducate my body to have an earlier sleep schedule. 2 1/2 years of finishing 2nd shift is really hard on the body.

I understand your schedule. Too many times I was going to bed just before your daughter gets up.
*cough, cough*

No, I don't have a cold, but cotton season is here and I'm allergic to it. *FacePalm*

Welcome back!
Yay Joe!
Yippie! Your back!!
Long time, no see y'all. Still no internet for computer. WiFi and tablet. Been making bread, finished the edges of king quilt. Today got some fresh air and vitamin D by mowing back yard. Right now drinking some iced tea and watching YouTube sewing and furniture restoring vids. Here's hoping everyone is having a great weekend.

Great activities, AmyJo. Blessings Always. *Smile*
Sounds like you've been busy. Great to see you pop in when you can!
Hi *Hand1*
Well, moving is done. Just about have room organized. Bad news: no internet in bedroom just yet...good news...WiFi and tablet work for now, so I guess I'm back...lol. Missed hanging out this week, but house is great. Lots of landscaping to do. Had venous ablation done on both legs...no fun, but at least it's over with. Hello compression socks come this weekend...it is what it is...
I hope it's a good move, and want to wish you a belated...

Howdy, lovely folks...
Well, moving day is Friday, so will be offline until probably Saturday. If I can lurk a bit until then, I'll try. But excitedly waiting for the Anniversary Bash coming up! Take care, until then! *HeartP*

Considering that we are writers, here, we might suppose, that every day could be a moving day, but considering all the effort you would be called upon to expend on Friday, I trust, that Saturday would be a much more settled day as you are moved, that the task is completed.
Thank you, dear lovely people, for the Anniversary wishes and goodies! I honestly believe this site is a wonderful community, and I'm happy to be here!
