   Excuse me for the interjection. Been thinking about Gordon Lightfoot like   
   everyone else these days I suppose.   
      
   Ronnie Hawkins lived just north of my town for years, on Stoney Lake, before   
   his health began to suffer and he moved to town. Gordon Lightfoot, and    
   Kris Kristofferson were regular visitors, along with many other musicians.   
   Ronnie passed a while back, and I think it affected Gord's mood alot. Damn,   
   Kris is the last one now. I saw Gord perform a few months ago at Massey Hall   
   in Toronto and he looked tired then, though his spirit still shone through.   
      
   I'll miss him.
