This is eerie, Watchman. Was Gord traveling alone or with an entourage?
By the way, just how good is Gord at rochambeau, AKA "rock-paper-scissors"?
Thanks,
Rebecca

As a matter of fact Rebecca, he did.

I was passing through Toronto on my way to my Chiniguntha River trapline and stopped for a brew in Ye Ol' Irish Tavern. I was drinking my ale when none other than Gordon Lightfoot sat next to me. I was very shocked and excited.

We talked about so many things and we even played "Rock-Paper-Scissors". As he was asking me for some ideas for his next studio album, I interupted him and just had to ask why the hell he had his picture taken in front of the ocean for GGII. He said "Isn't obvious trapper Al?" I felt really stupid and we both had a good laugh and played another round of 'Rock-Paper-Scissors".

So, there you have it!
