Dear Forum members. I was not able to attend the Conference, unfortunately, and I can see by the passions of the emails that it was a fantastic and memorable Mark Twain Event, he would have been very pleased!!!! I live on the property called The Lobster Pot, the original farm that Twain purchased when he came to Redding Ct...This spring we had a Mark Twain Centennial kickoff here at The Lobster Pot and consequently, for the past 2 months, I have been getting many inquiries regarding Mark Twain and Isabel Lyon, so with the help of the wonderful web designer Brent Colley, we have launched the site _www.marktwainslobsterpot.com_ (http://www.marktwainslobsterpot.com) for those of you who are interested in Twain's Lobster Pot and Isabel Lyon. To learn more about Twain and Redding Ct. a visit to Brent Colley's informative twainproject.blogspot.com and _www.historyofredding.com_ (http://www.historyofredding.com) will tell you almost everything you need to know about Twain, Stormfield, and Redding, Ct For any of you traveling East to Connecticut, during this coming Centennial year..you are always welcome to stop by and share a Toast for Twain on the infamous Patio! Happy Twaining, Susan B. Durkee www.SusanDurkee.com Lobster Pot Studio/Gallery 23 Mark Twain Lane W. Redding Ct. 06896 203-938-2760
