I met Kenny when Burton sent me over to the Grand View farm to help with haying, probably 1986 & it was a much different experience then throwing hay @ Peckhams - Danny was halrious, & the grandfather was still lurking about too, promoting a surreal sense of place & living history; That he wasn't exactly a celebrated patrician, but more of a tolerated nuciance, delights me to this day. Kenny's mom told stories about how the giant house had been host to visiting artist's back when Pownal enjoyed a status as "artist's colony" & excentrics abounded; So when air B&B began it struck me as a very old idea finding expression in the new internet reality. By 87' Larry Salvis had come to Pownal & Kenny was quite friendly with him - he asked me quite recently if I'd ever heard anythin from him subsequent to their departure from Pownal 3 or 4 years later, I'd worked with him some too & he did stop by to say goodbye, but we never heard another report about his fate, FB has an inactive profile with that name? I hope he's got all the anwsers now, I had so many questions for him that I was getting around to asking, believing he'd be around long after me..
