God bless you, John. God bless you. I am so glad you made this video. I was the guy who played the tenor recorder with you on the porch that night at the picnic. On the morning of the Quarry Farm picnic I walked up to Hal Holbrook and stuck out my hand. He took it in his and didn't let go. He said, "What brings you here?" I said, "When I was seventeen I saw you on TV, and I thought then that Mark Twain was a pretty funny fellow. After I'd grown I read him and found that he was singing a song that was already in my heart. From that day to this I've just wanted to hum along. And you sir, you were the first link in a very long chain...so I thank you." He loosened his grip but only slightly. He had heard what I said. He didn't say a word. He just stared at me with those pale blue eyes. They suddenly grew red and tears formed on the rims. He placed his other hand across my forearm, swallowed hard and gave me a nod. Rick Talbot
