The space shuttle Atlantis recently completed a twelve day, 4.9 million mile mission to resuscitate the aging Hubble Space Telescope. Our sixth podcast episode is a Reelfoot contributor's account of the take off, while floating in the middle of the Indian River in a kayak.
This spring finds us wind-burned and chapped, ready for warmth of some kind. Anykind. We put much wear and tear on the turntable needle this winter. Sad slow songs and frightened voices of lost and forgotten thrift store vinyl. Basement flood-worn cardboard covers and a dead man’s favorite song circled in blue ink. It only gets easier from here on out. The weekly choir meeting has been adjourned due to hoarsness. Time to turn over the soil and begin again. Clear your throats. Alltogether now, with Uplifted Voices.
Our fourth podcast episode comes to you by way of Dan Carter in New Mexico. "The recording was made from sounds while walking along the irrigation canals one afternoon in Las Cruces, NM from my house to the Rio Grande. They include: walking, red wing black birds, tractors in the onion fields, wind rustling in the bushes, water release into the canals, bees, and the Rio Grande."
