BB, is that book the one written by another Maine fisherman that has the Greenlaw foreward.

Doesn't seem as if the man is a fisherman. I believe he's an artist and author. He's a little bleeding-heart...wouldn't peg him for a fisherman. A friend nabbed the book for a bit, so I'll get back to ya when I get it back, if that's not the case.

Depends how far from freshman year you are.

I met the Greenlaw chick as well. She came onboard a boat I was sailing on as a student, talked to us, signed our books, the whole deal. Then she motored off in her little boat back to her home. Short of being companion-less, she has a pretty enviable life.
