that was a sad day for sure. Here in the south, Lee is still revered. We still honor our kin who fought in that war...and proudly wave our flag.

re: R. E. Lee

Thank you so much for the Baez lyrics. Though, of course, I knew and sang “parts” of that song way back, I never knew the importance of the words. My exposure was more like riding in a van with pals to a concert or somewhere and singing mostly just the title and the “nananananana...”. Sad to look back at my (our) ignorance, but pleased to know now.

Thanks again.
D.
