Collecting a bunch of related topics, and trying to coax these topics
back under the original subject . . .

I know I've asked this before, but, naturally, I can't remember the
answer . . . where IS Purgatory Chasm?

Anytime you need a ride, just ask!  I'm probably busy, but we ought
to be able to work SOMETHING out!

Revels, Inc. has offices in Cambridge.  Last I knew, they ran two
programs every year, the Christmas Revels and a spring revel that
I can't remeber the name of.  DEFINITELY something you MUST see!
I know some people that get involved . . . um, silly me, I just
thought of something . . .

 . . of course!  I can just CALL the office! 

The Midsummer Revels will be held June 19th (Sat.) and June 20th (Sun.).
Each performance runs 2-4 P. M., outdoors at the DeCordova Museum in
Lincoln, Mass.  Ticket information and prices should be available
late in March.  You can get on their mailing list by calling
(617) 621-0505, or writing to:

	Revels Inc.

F'r instance, I have a car, and I'd probably go.  Church, for that
matter, I'd probably help organize it!

How's Purgatory Chasm in February?  :-)
